new floors.... CHECK!!! cabinets... CHECK!!! granite... CHECK!!!

Ok, so as with any home project, our kitchen is turning into a much bigger deal than I thought. We were going to stay withour existing cabinets and just replace the tile, the countertops and backsplash. Now we're also doing new cabinets from Ikea. But anyway, we are done with the first thing, my new tile floor is complete. Here are a few before and afters. I didn't get to take a picture of our horrible white floors before Dh pulled them up.

Re: new floors.... CHECK!!!

i LOVE IT! And, I have a question.
The shiny stuff on the floor, what is that?

I don't have the first clue about installing tiles and wonder about the process, hence the question about the shiny stuff.

Our house was built in the 80s and our nasty old white tile had been layed directly on plywood. So after DH removed all of the tiles, we layed out tar paper, wire mesh and then a thin layer of concrete before tiling.

Re: new floors.... CHECK!!! cabinets... CHECK!!!

I like those cabinets! Could you get closer pics of the doors? Are they the typical IKEA assembly, with the pins and cams? I have several pieces from them, and they have been very sturdy for several years.

I love those cabinets. I showed DH and he likes them too.

Are you doing a kickboard to cover the legs or not?
