When we moved into our home the kitchen didn’t have a proper island. It was a “bar” that looked like it belonged on a patio. I always wanted an actual island with storage that fit the rest of the kitchen but didn’t want to spend the money on something already built.
After a few years I found this piece on FB Marketplace for a steal at $75, painted it white and used it it for a few more years…until I found these base cabinets on FB Marketplace with a granite top, for $200. (Then I sold the other one for $150!)

These were 3 base cabinets and one had all drawers which is exactly what I have been looking for. The plus side is they came with a beautiful slab of Granite, even though I will replace it when we get new countertops to match..I just don’t want granite.

So my mission was to make these base cabinets look like one cohesive piece in a beautiful island.
I love the way it came out and I have so much more storage in then kitchen. We might add on to the island with a garbage pull out when we get new countertops for the kitchen, since we will also replace this granite that came with it.
This is an easy project that with basic cutting skills you can achieve!
