How to make a table taller?
I have a small homemade vintage kitchen table. I want to use it as my kitchen island. It is, however, only 29 inches tall. The legs are 1.5 x 2 inches. I need some suggestions to raise the height of this table to about 32 inches.

You can also buy turned wood bun feet or turned wood table legs.... https://www.lowes.com/search?searchTerm=turned%20wooden%20table%20legs they come with a threaded bolt in them, just drill a hole in the bottom of your existing legs with a drill bit just slightly smaller than the bolt.

You could add locking casters to it, which would be about the right height. That would also make it portable. You could also add buns to the bottom or some other shape, depending on the style.
Since you're only going 3 inches, maybe consider a gap between the table top and another work surface over it where you can store items. It's always tough to add height to legs without it looking strange so my suggestion is add the height on top.
You could also add new legs to it to make it look more natural than leg extensions.
You can purchase legs or buns at Home Depot or Lowes to make your table higher.
