Wood kitchen countertops are a popular choice among DIYers because of the lower cost, ability to create and install by the homeowner, and customizable woods and stains.

There are so many options you can choose from when it comes to countertops, so if you’re trying to figure out what’s best for your remodel, check out our guide to all things countertops.

Wood Kitchen Countertops

For butcher block countertops, the price can vary depending on wood species, so the range can be anywhere from $30- $150 per square foot. We love the look of a butcher block mixed with other surfaces, such as just using for the island or simply in a fun powder bath.

Some of the benefits of wood kitchen countertops are that they are heat resistant and if properly sealed, just fine to food prep on.

With White Cabinets

To save on costs and to tie in other wood elements in the home, butcher block countertops were the perfect option in this St. Paul craftsman remodel. The wood countertop makes the island become a statement when paired with white quartz on the perimeter and neutral cabinets.

Pairing wood kitchen countertops with lighter accents makes the wood truly pop.

With Dark Cabinets

Another way to incorporate wood kitchen countertops is with darker cabinets for a more dramatic look. In the image below, the wood countertops pair well with the darker cabinets without making the space feel too dark.

With butcher block countertops, you’re also able to customize the size to fit the needs of the kitchen, like extending it for stools like shown below.

Thick Edge Island

In addition, with butcher blocks and wood countertops, the ability to create a thicker look is another option. This bulkier look grounds the space, making the island appear larger and it also ties in with other wood elements in the space.

Live Edge Countertop

For a big statement in the kitchen, a live edge island countertop is an amazing idea. If you love the more rough look and aren’t concerned with raw edges, this is a great option.

Combining the live edge with more standard kitchen countertops on the perimeter, allows the kitchen to still be functional, but also provides that awe-inspiring element.

Other Ways to Use Wood Countertops

In this modern farmhouse basement, we used butcher block countertops in the bathroom. If you want to learn how to DIY a butcher block vanity, we have a tutorial for you HERE.

In this basement finish, our clients were looking for a butcher block countertop for their TV cabinet storage. The wood look complimented the barn door and wood paneled ceiling and was a great choice to bring in warm tones.

And finally, we love this wood floating vanity look for a guest bathroom.

Although there may not be as much storage as a typical vanity cabinet, installing the double floating wood provides a shelf for towels and other linens, along with the built-in shelving to the right of the vanity.
