Need kitchen space? Get a cart

A movable cart is a great mini kitchen island. Extra counter space, storage and serving space. What's not to like? Terry does a great job making the Bekvam fit his kitchen's look and feel.

She says, "I thought you might want to see how I changed an Ikea Bekvam kitchen cart.

First, I stained it to match our new Ikea Liljestad cabinets, then sealed with Varathane. I used leftover tiles from the backsplash to tile the top. To finish the tiled top I added a frame of wood, stained the same color as the cart."
