Stove Top Cover
Extra counter space always comes in handy, especially during family gatherings. A stove top cover has a dual purpose, is useful as extra counter space or as an extra large serving tray!
Materials Needed:
Plywood, 30" x 22" x 1/2" (1)
Wood, 22" x 3" x 1/2" (2)
White Paint & Primer
Polyurethane
Wood Glue
Handles with screws
Cricut sign
Cricut machine (not shown)
Saw (not shown)
Staple machine (not shown)
Staples (not shown)
Step 1: I cut a piece of plywood, 30" x 22" x 1/2". The size of the plywood will depend on your stove's top measurements. Then, I painted the plywood white.
Step 2: I cut two pieces of wood, 22" x 3" x 1/2", to be used for the handles, and painted them white.
Step 3: Once the paint was completely dried, I applied the polyurethane to all the pieces.
Step 4: I used my Cricut machine to make the sign. However, you can also purchase a decal of your choice.
Step 5: The last step was to attach the handles to the side wood slats and the plywood base with the screws. For added security, you can also add a couple of staples to the back of the plywood base.
Step 6: This is what the stove top cover final product looks like!

Yours is absolutely beautiful - I think I'd be afraid to use it as a workspace though - I'd mar it!!
Want a laugh??? My nephew made one of these, last summer, to enter in the County Fair; his sister is married to a Forest Ranger, so they're living in an RV (they travel a lot!!), and she was noting the lack of counter space, so he thought to present her with a belated "wedding gift" that would give her a little extra workspace. Well, he won a best-in-show... but know what they called it? A "Noodle Board!" I'd never heard of such a thing but, here, in Amish Country rural Wisconsin, it's definitely a thing - a surface to flour and roll out noodles!!!
So, congratulations on your lovely Noodle Board!!! I'm actually poking at my husband that I'd like something like that... once we convert my 1940s Roper range from gas to propane and get it in my kitchen... thought it'd be a lovely way to cover up the burners and, yes, give a little extra workspace!!! But, and this is a COMPLIMENT - yours is almost to pretty to use!!! Just lovely!!!

Thank you for your compliment, I really appreciate it! I loved your nephew's story about his "Noodle Board!" I bet your "Noodle Board" will turn out very pretty!
