Monica,
The upper counter was fairly simple to remove once I purchased a reciprocating saw. That makes the cutting very simple. Even without one though the removal is not too tricky. I did rewire the outlets and mounted them behind false drawer fronts on the ends of the island. I would be happy to help you navigate through as you go.

We have a 16 y/o house with a useless high counter above our sink that separates our kitchen from the eat-in area and family room. We are planning to get butcher block countertops from floor & decor and create something similar to yours. We will have to join a couple of the counters also. My question is, how difficult was it to cut off the upper counter and did you re-wire the outlets? I will have to move at least some of the electricity because the switch to my garbage disposal is right where those outlet are. I can’t seem to find many people out in blog land that have done this. Thanks for any help and advice you can offer.

Thank you for visiting my blog, I’m anxious to see your final reveal but your kitchen progress is A-mazing. I will keep your blog closeby if I ever decide to tackle mine with chalk paint. The corbels are from Architectural Depot online and come in all shapes and sizes.

LOVE your corbels. I am trying to find some for our counter that sticks out. It does not stick out as far as your though.
