2 Repurposed Side Boards To Create a Farmhouse Kitchen Island

How to Build a Farmhouse Kitchen Island is still my favorite and most challenging furniture makeover. We combined a previously rescued sideboard and a more recent thrift store find to build a kitchen island for our new farmhouse.

Here you can see both furniture pieces that make up two sides of the 6′ by 7′ island.

Industrial pipes and a barn wood-style top complete the furniture makeover. See more details about how we built the island using old furniture. You can also click to see how to make new wood look like old barn wood.

As you can see from the images I’m sharing, I’ve painted the island 3 times since we built it and this article examines The Miracle of Chalk Paint Wax.
