"If you have a small kitchen and cannot find a kitchen island to fit your space, here's how I made my own," Claudia Williams said in a recent TikTok video. Her New York City apartment has a kitchen the size of a walk-in closet, so she needed to expand her workspace without clogging up the floorplan.
"Having this extra surface has been such a game changer, especially in my little NYC kitchen," Claudia wrote in the caption. "The whole project cost me around $150."
You may have luck finding something secondhand at the thrift store or from Facebook Marketplace. Take measurements of the area in your kitchen where the island will go to ensure that you get the right fit.
If you have a super small space, you may also have luck purchasing a large wooden cutting board to use as your tabletop. Leave it unstained and seal with beeswax so you can prep food right on it without having to worry about toxins.
