Parker, my handyman came to the rescue when I needed more storage and counter space for my kitchen! Little did I know how much I would fall in love with his carpentry skills!
So, he took perfect measurements for it to fit in the spot we wanted and got to work.
This was the initial build (that actually sat in our kitchen for months- well without the primer marks).
Months went by and while I grew to fall in love with this extra piece of storage in our kitchen along with the amazing whole in the middle to dump trash into... we were a little weary of the basic wood color.
So... off we went to Lowe's to choose our paint color...
Not only did we love this color... but, we decided to "crackle" it. People, if you have never got your hands on crackle... you need to make that a priority! WE LOVE CRACKLE!
After a base coat and several steps of painting... we had a rustic red, crackled island!
We also, found a random mirror around the house that we weren't pleased with the spot it was currently in.... and guess what- crackled it! It fit perfectly above our newly remodeled island... and just like that... we had our very own hand-made red, crackled island!
