How To Build A Kitchen Island Out Of Base Cabinets

Pilasters are a key element that make diy kitchen island designs like this one look sophisticated. Trace along the four corners of the island onto the floor with a pencil. Measure in from the traced lines using the side and toe kick thickness dimensions and mark the floor.

Then tie room together with countertop the color of existing cabinets.

Place the cabinet assembly the island base right side up on the kitchen floor and position the island precisely where you will install it. Once built screw the toe kick spacers to the cabinet. Sand the parts apply glue and assemble two half pilasters using nails. Here s what my dining room looked like before i started my reno.

The toe kick should be built so it sits 3 inches in on all sides of the cabinets and measures 4 inches high. Cut the pilasters h to length to match the height of the back project diagram cutting list and drawing 2. Match existing cabinets or choose new cabinets lighter or darker in tone or match color in floor. I decided to use both of the bottom cabinets to make my kitchen island.

How we created our diy kitchen island with prefab cabinets a little trim and unfinished butcher block countertops for an upscale custom look. I was ripping this whole wall of cabinets out anyway for my reno but i m all about re use re cycle since i wanted a kitchen island and i was lucky enough to have an extra set of 2 double doored cabinets in my dining room originally. Step one involved making a base for the island. Place spacers throughout the toe kick over the points where the cabinets meet.
