We (ahem, I use that term lightly) have been using so many items to make 'islands' for our shows and the store. (We sold over 6 at the last show). It is like people are just catching on to the idea that you can have this wonderful piece of furniture in your kitchen, although I have been telling them to use them in the living room (for flat screen TVs), den, craft room, just anywhere you can imagine, even a covered deck. Also, I see you have casters on it, too. Very popular here. Even BIG chunky casters that came from industrial stuff. Well, a lot of words to say, GREAT JOB. I know they will love using it.Helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13413508926577689054noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8556594343149477199.post-1852186650843142442012-09-08T12:55:53.541-07:002012-09-08T12:55:53.541-07:00Great job, guys!
