I think I've mentioned before that my Father in Law is the handiest man around. After all, he built us our gorgeous dining room table + our fun little kitchen island.
He's a pretty fantastic guy and I'm honored to be his daughter-in-law!
I finally got around to sealing the butcher block top of the island with waterlox and painting the bottom of the body a nice pale pink. Pink wasn't really even in the running but something inside me made me go that route. It's very subtle {SW Rose of Sharon} and I think that's why I like it. I couldn't decide on a bold color so the pink option was kinda unexpected.
I still have to style it but though I'd at least share with you all the finished product. : ) Now the only thing left for me to make this room complete are new floors!! Hopefully those will come before the end of the year--they are definitely on my to-do list!

I love your kitchen and dining room. Especially the plate wall, you did a really good job with the layout. =)
This looks amazing!
That is so cute! I really like how the top came out and you are right- the pink it so subtle it fits well. What are you going to do with the floors?
Love the pink! I would've been scared, but it really looks great with the room!

where'd you get the wire baskets on the island shelf?
It looks so good! Love that you painted the bottom a pale pink looks really pretty and looks great with your kitchen and dining room!
LOVE the pink! It's perfect with your adorable little DIY carnations! :)
Few things:
I LOVE your countertop. I always notice it first when you post photos of your kitchen. Where do you buy all of your drapes?? And where did you get the chairs for your table? My dad is making me a table and I cannot find chairs that I love (at a reasonable price...I need to buy 10!)
Super cute! The pink is definitely unexpected but totally fun. Great pick.
It looks wonderful! And I'm in love with that dining table, too.

I love the pink, Joi! It's just soft enough that it makes you take a second look and do I see a decorative plates wall? :)

Lovey, love, love! It looks fantastic!
Styling or not, the whole setup is DIVINE!!!! That softest shade of pink is so perfect, Joi. What a fab color, I never would have even thought of pink!
It looks awesome (of course). I wouldn't have ever even thought of pink. You are a genius.
And, PS, we're going to be in St Louis next weekend. Any must-go stores?

It looks fabulous! and so does your plate wall..
What a great job! Your kitchen is beautiful.
I absolutely love this room. How lucky to have such a handy man in the family.
This reminds me, I have to take m vintage wire baskets off my front porch and finally find a place for them in the new house.
The pink is so fun! Definitely a good choice.
Looks great - I love your pink flowers and love that you did all white vases but each with a different shape!
