islands in the kitchen
My buddy Chuck popped in for a few hours on Sunday last to set the tile on the back splash beneath the cabinets on the south wall of the kitchen. The results are impressive.
Previous to our back splash session, FedEx finally managed to deliver the cabinets for my island without destroying or losing them. The island is quickly becoming space which I long to use. Once the cabinets were in place, I realized I had room for a bar overhang on the east end of the island. Chuck converted some 8/4 maple into corbels for me. The corbels turned out great and will be even better once I figure out how to stain them. In the near future, Chuck and I will need to set the beveled edge pieces over the exposed cabinet cap (the perforated metal below the marble visible on the island).
On President's Day, my buddy Erik phoned for help moving a dresser he and Debbie purchased from a local furniture store. While waiting for some muscle to pull his order, I found and purchased the hutch below. It goes incredibly well with the rest of the kitchen.
