Welcome to our DIY kitchen island project! In this video, we will show you how to build a stunning kitchen island using an IKEA kitchen hack.

The table top is made from solid white oak, providing a durable and elegant surface for meal preparation and dining. We took the time to paint the plywood sides ourselves, ensuring a personalized touch and seamless integration with our kitchen decor.

Should put it on Casters add a white plug strip and roll it around as needed. That’s what I did and added a paper towel holder and 2 dish towel bars. I love mine it is totally functional I added an oversized extra thick Maple Butcher block that I lightly sand and oil twice a year. It looks amazing. My ninja air fryer and food processor and pressure cookers live below and on top when in use I simply plug them on the Plug strip tucked below the top and screwed down in place. It’s lovely to have it electrified And so easy. Then roll it around to mop or plug in or unplug

How did you secure the butcher block? Or is it just sitting on top?

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Hi, I used screws from the bottom, when you get the base cabinets it comes with some metal rails with holes, that you use to attach the board to the base cabinets.

How was the counter top attached? Just using brackets inside the cabinets?

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

The ikea cabinets come with metal rails that have screw holes that you can use to attach the top to the cabinets.

Not sure if I missed it but you did not show how you attached the top to the base and what fixings you used.

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Yes, we didn't show that, but the ikea cabinets have rails at the top with screw holes, which allow you to attach the butcher block or any type of top you have using screws

Very helpful video! Did he screw the base to the floor or no?

@ACornerInEurope Год назад

No we built a cabinet base using 2*4s and screwed the cabinets into them

@Jr91276 4 года назад

Hi Collette, can I ask what was the name of the IKEA kitchen unit you have used for this? Thanks

@ACornerInEurope 4 года назад

Hi, I used the METOD base cabinets, here is the link www.ikea.com/dk/da/p/metod-underskabsstel-hvid-50205626/

@Jr91276 4 года назад

Thanks so much, can I ask if you know the overall cost you spent roughly on the island in total? Xx

@ACornerInEurope 4 года назад

It was around $550, but this is denmark, its cheap.

@stevehamilton1972 Год назад

love the ideas of building an IKEA too.... did you attach the sub-base (2x4 lumber) to your floor ???

@ACornerInEurope Год назад

No I didn't, because it's rental but it's quite steady

Love your floors. Did you install them? If so what color and brand?

Hi, sorry for the late response, we actually got our place with the floors installed.

@rubythedog7179 3 года назад

What is the stain that you used on the butcher block?

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Its a danish brand made for butcher blocks. Here is the link www.bauhaus.dk/junckers-rustik-bordpladeolie-sort-0-75-l Maybe you can get something similar and make sure you seal it, I did not seal mine. I sealed it on my coffee bar and it looks really good. Let me know if you need anything else.

@ketsiabella4657 3 года назад

Hi I was wondering what’s the measurements of your kitchen island please

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Hi, it’s 60cm by 160cm .Then the top board plate extends With 20cm.

@shakomar9021 3 года назад

you did not paint it, cause you keeping the paint brush incorrect. but 10 for effort. well done

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Thank you for the 10😊, but I don't understand what you mean by "you didn't paint it" we stained the top and painted the back plate(which I didn't record) that was it?

@carscloseup 3 года назад

Hvor fandt du bordpladen med den ekstra bredde og hvad er målene?

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Hej CarsCloseUp. Den er 165*80*2,5 cm. Jeg købte og fik den skåret hos Bauhaus. Udover bordpladen fik jeg også til 2 flotte hylder, som jeg har lavet med resten samt nogle rør.

@carscloseup 3 года назад

@@ACornerInEurope Cool, tak! Ok den er ikke mere end 80 cm! Jeg kunne godt se du også var i Bauhaus😄

@ACornerInEurope 3 года назад

Nej, den er ikke mere end 80 :) Hvis du har behov for mere, så kan du evt. købe 2 og lime dem sammen.

@carscloseup 3 года назад

Ja det har jeg overvejet, men jeg kan se, at Bauhaus faktisk har en på 90, så det tror jeg er nok!!

@jazzblackvalcin3097 2 года назад

Wow! Beautiful,but that’s a lot of work.

@ACornerInEurope 2 года назад

🤣 yes the assembling of tje cabinets was alot of work, but after that it was all easy.

@tothetummy 4 года назад

How did you keep the island from moving around at the base?

@ACornerInEurope 4 года назад

I used pieces of 1 by 2s, check on the video from minute 13, it shows how I did it.😊

@tothetummy 4 года назад

@@ACornerInEurope oh i see! I noticed that in the video but I wasn't sure if you nailed them into the floor? or do the pieces just keep everything down?

@ACornerInEurope 4 года назад

No we didn't nail them to the floor, we combined the 1 by 2s pieces together with pockets holes, then drilled the cabinets on top of the 1 by 2s and also drilled the cabinets to each other to make one big piece. Its solid!😅 Won't move an inch.

@ACornerInEurope 4 года назад

We kind of made a frame with the 1 by 2s the frame is smaller in length and width compared to the kitchen Island.

@tothetummy 4 года назад

@@ACornerInEurope Good to know. This is really cool! I'm might try this out for my kitchen.
