Finally the wood is in place on the countertop. It looks so much better than I ever imagined and I am really excited about it. It gives my kitchen that warm comforting feeling instead of cold and modern. I am not a modern kind of girl, more of a farmhouse style stuck with a 80's tacky house. It is getting there, though, just takes a little time, money amd a LOT of elbow grease!. Now I have lots of sanding to do and some finish work and the counter will be done. It has finally reached a point where I can take over and do some of the work, that L has been stuck with the whole time!
This last shot is a closeup of my favorite knot and grain pattern in the wood.

I love to be able to the grain and knots of real wood.
Few things are more beautiful to the senses than hand-rubbed wood. It's lovely.
Beautiful! We have wood counter tops that my husband made from tongue and groove oak flooring. Not as elegant as yours but still attractive.
