Despite my craving for the Boos block below in today’s daily find, I’ve been a lifetime buyer of Ikea butcher blocks (so far), which need even more love and care to keep them from looking really dry, dirty and grey after a few years. The first big trick with butcher blocks is to oil them immediately to seal and protect the wood, but often nothing happens after that. I recently took a palm sander to our home butcher block and wanted to share how easy it was to resurface and make look like new.
