If you've ever looked into adding an island in your kitchen, then you're all too aware of how expensive they run. Needless to say, when we saw how Corey Decker of Sawdust 2 Stitches transformed a dated $5 media cabinet she found at a garage sale into a sophisticated kitchen island, we were flabbergasted. The final product includes not only a dramatic aesthetic overhaul, but oodles of useful features, such as cubby shelves, two hidden garbage cans, and a towel rack. Get inspired by the dramatic before and after pictures below, and get the full tutorial on Sawdust 2 Stitches.
