So our kitchen is completed as far as contractor's work is concerned. We have some finishing touches to do ourselves, but here it is with backsplash and range hood in place.

You must be thrilled every time you go in there to make something!! It's beautiful, rosa!
Very nice!!! Congrats!!!
It is simply beautiful! So pretty. I love the contrast of your black granite counter to the white everywhere else. It is a classic kitchen.Quote:

"If those cats could talk what tales they'd tell about Rosa and her hubby and the kitchen as well, but those cats were cool and they never said a mumblin' word." ~ with apologies to Hoyt Axton.
That looks beautiful! Congratulations.
Wow! I’m jealous. The cats!
Where did you get those cabinets? I still want to get some either for the other wall, or to build an island as the pots and pans are in a tiny cabinet on either side of the stove. (poor design)
TMS: We ordered them through our kitchen designer, but we started out with a photo of a line we really liked from Home Depot. It was their Thomasville Studio 1904 line, and the designer said the same company makes a lot of the commercially available cabinets and just brands them differently. Some of ours say "Masterbrand" inside and some say "Diamond."
We have Diamond kitchen cabinets for our Hermann kitchen, ordered theough Lowes.Quote:

I don't think I shared this yet, but I bought a painting for the kitchen. (I think I touched upon art as one of my gazingus pins in another thread). Anyway, this is a kind of fun and whimsical painting called "You Make Me Smile," by a local artist. It does indeed make me smile, and I felt like it belonged in our new kitchen. :)

That's so cute! And cool that it's from a local artist!
Funny picture, nice setting for it.
Great kitchen painting!
