Turning a Dresser into a Kitchen Island on Wheels
ฝัง

- We turn an old dresser into a kitchen Island. The wood for the bottom was 3/4 inch plywood. The flip top and cubby lid were made from edge glued pine. The legs and wheels were purchased from Menards. The flip top does not match the original dresser top because we didn't have a stain to match it. We may eventually replace the original top to match the flip top. We tried to keep this project inexpensive. Obviously we had the tools and some supplies already but the things that we needed to purchase specifically for this piece only cost $100. That cost went to my brother since this was going to be his when finished. $100 for a kitchen island is not bad at all.

I think this is great; you designed for your brother’s needs and taste, not for anyone else. People are so funny the way they criticize. If they want different handles or paint, they can make their own. This video provides inspiration and people can always customize their own project however they want. I bet your brother is very happy with this.
EXCELLENT Idea about using the Handles as a Towel Holder...
First time I saw a dresser turned into something so useful!
Beautiful work and nice to see an older piece with real wood get re-purposed, versus paying more than twice as much for a new veneer piece. Great job!
Just awesome! Love to see upcycled furniture! Kudos on converting this to a functional beauty.
You and your brother work well together. Your Mother should be proud!!!
What a beautiful job ,so creative, makes me want to.dress up my islsnd.
You can add nice storage baskets to the lower part -gorgeous
I think he plans on storing his rice cooker and air fryer down there.
Very nice. I imagine the bottom cubby to be perfect for potatoes and onions! A kitchen island can cost hundreds of dollars and this was custom.
Never store potatoes and onions together. They will both spoil quickly
It looks very pretty , good job 👍
I love recycling! It keeps it out of the landfill. And saves another tree. Project turned out great.
That is a beautiful piece of furniture.
Wow, the way you two guys work in unison makes me think what it would be like to have 4 hands, great guys!
One was a women with painted finger nails
I love it 🫶 It’s so beautiful. Nice work 👍
Turned out great. Very inspiring. Thank you
I absolutely love the color choices you did along with the stained wood. And the cubby perfect idea. Wish I could work with wood,😂 Excellent work !
OH MY GOSH... I have the almost EXACT same dresser... Same Handles too!!!!
I was thinking TODAY about throwing it away
You both did a Fantastic job...
I might not throw away my dresser draw away now..
Love your Tattoos..
There is a Huge Tattoo show here in Carlsbad, New Mexico...
I am the only person that goes and doesn't have any tattoos... LOL
They look at me like I'm really strange.. but I love the art.
Thank you for sharing this great video
You guys did a really great, very professional job remaking this dresser. I would love something like this in my kitchen.
Very nice restoration. Love the colors you used.
It’s absolutely beautiful 🤩
Beautiful work! I love repurposing projects
That's handy!
You all did a beautiful job!!!
That came out lovely! ❤
Really turned out great ❤
Cool idea! Looks great!
Nicely done! Thanks for sharing!
Gorgeous. I will try those flaps. Also, it was so interesting, my cat watched the whole video, so, good job filming and editing!
Incredibly beautiful job! Beautiful family!🎉
Wow! Beautiful. Love the colors.😊
So functional and saved from trash! Love the bottom cubby, good for breakables!
Wow! Really love the transformation! Beautiful and functional ❤❤
Wow, gotta get my boyfriend to watch this video. I have an old dresser waiting for a remodel like this! 😊
Beautiful Kitchen Island! Well done.
Wow. I've missed y'all it's good to see y'all. This turned out awesome. I know I'm 2 months to late but better late then never I suppose
Wow soooo nice love the color combo too. Awesome work.
I made a kitchen cart out of a nightstand, that my mom bought for $25.00. It was painted with varnish, but I painted the cart with white paint. I installed casters, without the legs, though. I also installed a drawer pull on the side to hang a towel, or utensils with S hooks.
Perfect for small kitchens.
Beautiful job you guys‼️‼️‼️and that secret little hidden space 👍🏻👍🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻‼️
Looks great, like a high end brand piece ❤
It's a blessing from GOD 2 have these type of carpentry skills.
Very nice work. Beautiful re-do!
You guys did an amazing job. Its stunning!
Magnifique travail pour de nouvelles fonctionnalités...un îlot de cuisine en re conversion.....bravo👍
My gosh, really professional and pretty! Great job, I’m a new sub!
Thanks for sharing..Know this is a trade well thought out. God gave you all a gift 👏👏
Your amazing..Thank you for sharing your talents.
Beautiful ❤
Beautiful !!!! Love this idea. Thank you for sharing. Blessings to Everyone ❤
That is pretty and functional!
It turned out really nice.
Perfect! I love when people take old junk and turn them into something useful.
Beautiful! ❤ and clever.
Looks absolutely beautiful,but you need to paint those white hinges that hold up the extra table, they stand out like a sore thumb! Paint them the dark green!
Wow!! That’s beautiful! What a great idea….thanks for sharing. Headed to storage unit to see what we have to make something similar!
Great job love how it turned out
That would be so awesome to have a brother to work with! You are very fortunate and I appreciate your great explanation of how to do this!
I love it! Great work!
That is really nice. The only thing I would do different is make that bottom part, under the shelf, more hidden, for a secret stash for valuables, and not us a decorative pull.
We wanted it for baking dishes that aren't used very often.
Nice Job ❤
Good use for the dresser.
So instead of using polycrylic, I now use water-base Spar. It is a better water seal and has UV protection. I was really happy when they came out with the water-based version as I live in Florida and now won’t need as many coats to seal a piece. It is great for anything used in the kitchen.
WoW! That's SO nice!
Absolutely stunning!!!
Beautiful work.
That was so clever how you measured the handles! Genius! I love that you left a drawer too. It came out so beautiful ❤
I have that exact dresser along with the tall dresser. What a keen idea.
Good Idea ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Awesome turn out ❤
Very, very, nice!
I was wondering about the ornate handle on the lower part. Glad you showed it at the end. Great work! Turned out beautiful!
Excellent work! I have one I wish I can turn it out this way!! Need the tools though TFS 🙏🏾
It's sooooo beautiful 👍💪🥰🤗👍
Absolutely beautiful. You did a beautiful great job. I wish that live close to you. Cause I'd like to get a cabinet section and make a drop leaf. Table like that for a bar. And that's my idea and put it on rollers. Also, for like an another one of course, and would do away with the little table I have. That would be storage. It would be so nice. Keep up the good work. I love watching you
Beautiful!
I did this with a small sideboard but all I did was paint it, change the hardware and add wheels. I will be adding a butcherblock top and some long handles on the side for towel racks and to help move it around. I wanted the drawers and bottom cabinet for storage.
Back in the day my dad would turn these and discarded wood TV cabinets into liquor cabinet/bars.
Great job!!
Looks NICE!!
Excellent work!
Wow, that's wonderful and beautiful! I want one
Great job!

WOW l am amazed that is so beautiful you guys did an awesome job be proud of yourself.
Loved the great finish. Great you guys are recycling and keeping items out of landfill. You and yourbrother have good ideas. Well done. I bought an oak cupboard and my husband sprayed it with car paint and some new handles it turned out beautiful and a lot cheaper than paying a joiner to make a new one. Take care😊
Lots cheaper.
Beautiful result!
What a lovely job
That’s beautiful
Gorgeous - and ingenious!
Looks fabulous. Great work.

Granted, I would not use brown but it still looks nice.
