Kitchen Renovation Update

Now that 2008 is upon us, we have decided to get moving on our kitchen renovation. Today we chose floor and backsplash tiles, so I'm very excited. Here's what we have so far:

Cabinets from IKEA



Porcelain floor tiles from Ann Sacks




Glass tiles for backsplash, also from Ann Sacks

This is the design:



These are the colors:







These colors look a little gray here, but in person they are creamier and go nicely with both the cabinets and the floor tiles. Oh, and to add a little depth and texture to the backsplash, we're going to use a mix of glossy and matte finishes. It sounds weird, I know, but the sample at the showroom was gorgeous!


Cabinet pulls from Restoration Hardware (which are on sale now - hooray!)




Slim refrigerator from Compact Appliance




Possible faucet set from National Faucet Warehouse




We still need to chose a range and countertop material, but that's about it. I'm leaning towards doing a Corian countertop with an integreated sink so that there are no seems and it just all flows easily. I'm so excited I can't stand it. I love when it all comes together and you're just chomping at the bit to get started.

So, what do you think?
