How To Create A Beautiful Butcher Block Countertop Out Of Reclaimed Barn Wood
In this post, I’m going to show you how I built a butcher block countertop for our trailer kitchen out of wood I reclaimed from the old barns on the farm. Butcher block is a beautiful, durable, functional countertop material that gives a strong sense of farmhouses, old-fashioned cooking, and home. It requires slightly more maintenance than other kinds of countertop, but I look at it as a way of making sure you clean your countertops off regularly. When it came time to choose what material I wanted for my countertop, it was no choice. Butcherblock has always been my favorite and I couldn’t wait to finally cook in a kitchen with these beautiful counters.
