You could do it, but realize that pine is a soft wood and will not stand up to kitchen use as other more dense materials will. You'd have to sand it down, then use wood sealer and a clear varnish-- probably 3 coats. I found this fun article -- I could almost see pine in this kitchen! http://www.oldhouseweb.com/architecture-and-design/barn-kitchen.shtml
