Your kitchen is beautiful. I love toy counters. The wood is lovely and warm. I also love your runners, where are they from?


 o
RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

That is so pretty! Similar to my own colors, so I'm probably biased!

Would you mind telling me how deep your micro cabinet is? We're looking at doing a similar application, open cabinet with the monogram microwave...how does that work out?

Thanks!

BEautiful! Love, love, love your countertop. Did you order the wood countertop from craftart? Or just the finishing products?


 o
RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

Really really nice and comfortable looking! Did you seal your AB granite?


 o
RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

I love how you made a mostly white kitchen feel so homey, warm, and inviting. I hope to do the same, and think it's not so easy. Congrats!

Wow!
We have the same doors & drawer fronts!
Of course, your's haven't been through 30 owners and the reuse center and are clean, beautiful and oh, so perfect!

I just love how calm your kitchen is. You've done a beautiful job.

Beautiful! I am drooling over your walnut! It is so lovely! Love your pendants, too!

Beautiful kitchen--thanks for sharing!


 o
RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

Gorgeous! What a happy, bright space. And I have to agree - that walnut is TO DIE FOR.

Couple Questions:

Was the absolute black granite a DIY, too?

Do you cut down the edge profile and do the finish/oil yourself?


Enjoy!

RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

Very nice! But where are the "before" photos? It's always so fun to see the magical transformation. ;-)

Sans photos, I'd love to know more about what you did. Are these new cabinets? Or were they existing white cabs? Or were they existing cabs that you painted? What color are they? They look like such a good match to your (white?) fridge so the fridge MOL fades away into the background, letting your other elements shine, like that yummy walnut counter and the island pendants.

I like your kitchen runner, too. Where did you get that?


 o
RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

Love it! I love that pressed metal backsplashy thing, and your pendants, and your glass knobs, and your colors, and the dining room, and....


 o
RE: Kitchen Remodel DONE! Lots of pics...

Oh my gosh! That looks incredible. Excellent work.

Do you have a before pic?

Is this where you got it the island wood countertop? (i can't figure out how to include the link in the body of the stupid message so I put it below - cross your fingers that it works....)

Hi all,
Sorry just checked my post and saw all your questions and requests.
I'm trying to post a "before" pic from the real estate ad; this was a complete remodel. Original cabinets were 1985 orangy smelly oak with peach-toned laminate tops, and a peninsula running in the opposite direction as the new island. Also we moved the door over into where the fridge was, and added more cabinet space in the new fridge wall.

And here are answers to questions posted:
Cabinets were from Huntwood, door style is Hamlet, color is Colonial White.

Runners are Safavieh, purchased on Overstock.com

Microwave cabinet is standard upper depth of 12", hubby hates how it sticks out but it works great.

Granite is bare, haven't sealed it, not having any staining issues but I clean up oil and acid quickly.

Wood countertop was ordered from craftart.com as Contractor level DIY. I bought a router bit from Home Depot and our contractor cut it down to 3x7 and routed the edge. I then did the DIY finish using instructions from craftart. Used sanding dust mixed with superglue as filler in knot holes, etc. Very happy with the quality and price. Cost for 4x8 was about $1100 shipped including finish materials.

Any other questions, you can email directly to me at boffeys@gmail.com
Thanks!
Mary Ann

Looks like the countertop thickness is garbled in the original post.
It is 1 3/4" thick.
