need kitchen pictures for inspiration - re-staining wood cabinets

Please post some pics for inspiration. We're planning to sand and restain our wood cabinets (in addition to a new countertop and backsplash)

We just bought all new SS appliances and are planning on a darker (black based, but probably with warm golds or browns or something like that in it) granite countertop.

Looking for wood colors for inspiration. I'm not tied to light or dark necessarily, just something to go nicely with the countertops and appliances.

Cabinets are currently a light/golden color stain... (no pics on this computer - sorry!)


ETA -- or just post your kitchen or your favorite kitchen. Anything for inspiration - even if the appliances / countertops are different than mine will be. Thanks!

I bought this stuff called Miracle finish from QVC and it worked great on my cabinets. I did not have to sand them down and I did not even have to take the doors off. It took me about 2 hours to do all my cabinets.

here is the link, the only thing is you can only go darker then the finish you have now.
