Glimpse at my new fridge and stove! I had them add a spice rack on the right of the stove, it was just wasted space before and I need every inch of storage I can get.
I found this image of this fridge that I loved on PINTEREST. I was very happy when I found this one…
I wanted to convert to a gas stove, but it ended up not being very affordable to only convert the stove and we weren’t ready to convert everything over to gas (we use oil to heat our home now). I had the ICE MAKER added to the fridge and I think I have gained an hour a day from filling up the ice trays and emptying them (seriously ice on hand is from heaven). I love having the fridge on the top and the room it offers rather than a side by side. The best part is they are really affordable. You can find info on them HERE.
Not all butcher block is created equal. I went with a maple wood butcher block that is water resistant, you can find something like it HERE. I had a butcher block in my old home and it was from Ikea, very susceptible to water (you can see pictures of that HERE). I also like the fact that you don’t have to wait a week to have a template made after your cabinets are installed like you do for granite or quartz.
I went with THIS faucet shown in the picture above from IKEA, excited to get it installed.

This is going to be amazing! I love that tile and those appliances. Our island is butcher block island and it's the best. I think I'll always have butcher block in a kitchen.
I can not wait to see this room in 2 weeks! Good luck!

Thank you, I love the butcher block, and everyone who comes over loves it!

It is perfection… Of course. I love how you are sticking with the era of the home but in a glimmer up and modern way!!! Awesome

I just love your butcher block, but the links are broken when I try to click on them. Would you mind sharing the source of your butcher block? I love the shade of wood you used, thank you!
