What is the wood type on island and colour of stain? »
· Comment · 6 weeks ago
Kenny Grono The butcher block countertop is made from salvaged floor joists. They are from a 100+ year old fir taken out of a house in Philadelphia. No stain or varnish was used, but it has been sealed with a mixture of wax and mineral oil from the Real Milk Paint Company: http://www.realmilkpaint.com/soapstone-sealer-wax.html. It needs to be reapplied every month or so.

What Houzz contributors are saying:
added by Rebekah Zaveloff to House Planning: How to Set Up Your Kitchen
3. Cookbooks, wine, and oversized bowls. If you have a cabinet above the refrigerator, consider taking off the doors and adding a wine rack or an extra shelf for cookbooks, or even a few cool looking serving bowls. Typically this deep, dead space ends up being full of less used items that just take up space. Instead, use that space for a pretty presentation.
Reclaimed boards, a hardwood floor, exposed beams and metal lamps bring in the rustic; the blue brings in the color and the fabulous pattern on the tiles. Wondering about these tiles? They are Cuban Heritage Design Handmade Cement Tiles.
