DIY: Build Your Own Kitchen Island

My kitchen has long been one of those rooms in my home that I put in the category of "almost complete."  When I moved in, it had already been beautifully redone with white headboard cabinets, marble countertops, a farmhouse sink, and wonderful stainless appliances to boot!   But, the problem is that it's kind of an awkward size.  There isn't truly enough room to put a nice island (not to mention any type of table), yet without something there is just this dead space in the middle.  Plus no where to put out food for guests or let a friend sit to talk to you while you cook.

So, my idea for a solution became a kitchen island on wheels.  Thus, I could move it into the corner under the window when it became to burdensome, but I have it there for everyday use - because if there was one downside to my beautiful kitchen, it's that it is a little short on counter space.
