I went out today and picked up my countertop because my cabinets are nearing completion. It's 144x25x1.5 walnut and it's beautiful. I also picked up the matching backsplash. I also hit a local sawmill and found the live edge slab for my island. It's awesome! I can't wait to get started on it.
I picked up my countertop today too. It's gonna be gorgeous after a few coats of mineral oil. (I'm thinking maybe walnut oil though) It's a walnut butcher block.
