Kitchen Renovation Pics!!
After months of planning and weeks of construction, our kitchen is finally done!! I am so happy with the way everything came out  We have a galley kitchen with a windowed eat-in area. Before the renovation, the kitchen and the eating area were seperated by a half wall and the flooring was different in each space. Our biggest projects were removing the wall and laying a single new floor. We also widened the entrance which you can not see in the pics. The only thing left is new kitchen chairs, custom upholstery for the bench, and something on the wall above the table! I listed some of the details below... and pics of course!! Let me know what you think 
Cabinets - Ikea Adel Medium Brown
Counter - Icestone (green material made of concrete and recycled glass)
Floor Tile - 12 x 24 Limestone porcelin tile with almond grout laid in a subway pattern
Backsplash - 1.5 x 6 Walker Zanger Roku glass tile in Moss with white grout
Fridge - GE Profile - Counter-depth
Microwave - GE Profile
Dishwasher - Bosch
Slide-in range - Kitchenaid Architect Series II
Faucet - Kohler Simplice

Re: Kitchen Renovation Pics!!
Very nice!
I'm interested in hearing your thoughts on the countertop. We're doing our kitchen next year, and we're of course interested in "green" materials. We still have no idea what we're going to do about the counters.
Was it expensive, are there seams, do you have to seal it? I'm assuming it's too soon to know about staining and scratches.

Thanks! I absolutely LOVE the way it looks! Check out the website. We have sage pearl.
It is a slab, so no seams. It came pre-sealed and they recommend to re-seal it approx. every 2 years. It is a porous material, so I believe it stains like granite. The website says that you can cut directly on it, but I do not plan to try!
I think it is generally expensive. Because of DH's relationship, we got it for approx $100/sq ft installed, but it retails closer to $250/sq ft installed. We also considered Paperstone, which is another green material, and I'm sure DH can help you think of others!

Unfortunately, we had no other use for them, but I believe that our contractor held on to them and hopefully he plans to reuse them at some point.

Re: Kitchen Renovation Pics!!
Hmmmnn  I think I like your, cause here is mine we did a few months ago. This pic does not have the completed paint, switchplates, etc. Also this is before the grout was done. We chose BM Shaker Beige for the kitchen paint. Your kitchen came out great!! We even chose similar faucets!! ENJOY!!
