Ideas for Creating Custom Kitchen Islands

Custom Kitchen Islands

There are many kitchen islands out there. All you have to do is walk in a home store, look at pictures online and browse magazines. There is something you want in every photo or store, but there isn’t a kitchen island that has everything you want. Making your own kitchen island is the solution. Get a one-of-a-kind, custom kitchen islands available for your home.

Made with the best quality material glossed over with a finish, kitchen islands are styled to your satisfaction. Companies like Cabinets by Graber will build one from scratch and make it fit according to the space available in your kitchen. Choose the color, material, size and shape. Make decisions on what features you want the kitchen island to have. The design must match the theme of the kitchen, yet look like separate furniture. For inspiration read these below.

  • Some ideas to add to your kitchen island are a dishwasher, garbage disposal, trash compactor, storage space and a kitchen sink. It’s impossible to add all those things at once, but add only the things that will benefit the kitchen.
  • Homes with children should get islands with rounded edges instead of pointy square ones.
  • Countertop space at the top of kitchen islands should match the function: butcher block for chopping; marble or granite for pastry dough.
  • Small kitchens should go for an island with storage or a kitchen cart.
  • Use the kitchen island as a mini dining area if there’s isn’t space for a separate dining room.
  • Add legs for the shape of furniture or wheels to move it wherever you please.

Customizing a kitchen island is expensive, but worth every penny. As long as you save enough money to pay for it a kitchen island is a design away. There won’t be another kitchen island like yours on the market because you make the decisions from start to finish. The options are limitless.
