Love the kitchen! For your little prep sink, what did you go with? I have a wood counter and a delta champagne bronze facet as part of my remodel but am not sure what color sink to go with for my prep sink. Thank you.

One of them isn’t sealed (with poly) at all and the one on the sink side was sealed with water based poly (we waxed them both but it wasn’t enough for the sink side to prevent water staining and cracking). They’ve held up pretty well, I think we will sand and seal the island one soon. I think it really depends on the wood and your climate. We’ve been pretty lucky with ours but I know someone that installed one similar timing as us and there’s is cracking and splitting a lot more. If there is drastic climate changes it can make the wood contract and expand which will make more splits and cracks (depending on the wood too).

Hi Jess! Absolutely LOVE how all of this turned out. Now that you’ve lived with the butcher block for a little while, how are they holding up? How often do you re-seal? I know you two use your kitchen frequently so I thought you’d be the perfect person to ask!

Beautiful! It really shows that you don’t have to have a giant space to have a great kitchen. Inspiring me to re-do mine!

We used a water based poly over the chalky paint. The same one we used on the floors which I linked in our living room reveal!

In love with this reno!

For the cabinets – did you just use the Valspar Chalky paint? Or is there a coat of something else on top that creates that finish?
