Winter project perhaps?

Natalie showed me this fun site yesterday with free plans for building a whole variety of furniture. I started out looking for chairs we could build to go with our patio table and got sidetracked with this: Farmhouse Kitchen Island
It has all the things I've been looking for in an island...some closed storage, some open storage, and space for two stools. The plans are for a 2'x5' island, which I think would be just about right for our kitchen. The plans seem pretty straight forward - I think we could handle it. And for the top we've already scoped out walnut butcher block tops. We saw one a couple months ago at Lowe's and really liked the look and found them online for pretty reasonable prices.
Maybe in the meantime I should keep working on ideas for patio chairs, seeing as though it's only June...
