Opps. I'll try and fix the slideshow...

Here is a link that might be useful: slideshow I hope

It was the slideshow and what a nice one. Simply stunning kitchen. Remarkable transformation. Enjoy!

lovely - what a great job! and i loved seeing the whole story in the slide show!

Kitchenaddict I loved your previous pictures. You have that beautiful delicatus that I had picked out and paid for and my fabricator gave away. I look at your pictures and I still like it so much. The effect of your backsplash, granite and cabinets look so pretty in the pictures. What a differece from beginning to end. It just looks so fantastically updated. Great job and thanks for sharing the pictures.

Stunning! I love the colour combinations. Can I ask you - what type of backsplash is that? Really nice..

Thanks for the compliments everyone:)

maggie...I have followed your story and am very interested in hearing more about what granite you eventually find. Please keep us updated!

koolforkatz...My backsplash is called Crema Marfil. It's a marble subway tile that I found at Arizona Tile.

I couldn't access the slideshow, but the pic you posted here looks gorgeous!

Too yummy for words!!!

Love your new kitchen, the cupboards, tile, granite...... everything is gorgeous!

Your kitchen is awesome...and I am so partial to the Delicatus granite....gorgous....every bit of it! I'm just beginning....drawings done, cabs selected, sinks and faucets, appliances (except for the single oven), and the granite....I'm waiting for that slab that makes me sigh and smile at the same time. So glad you're there! You did a great job!

Absolutely beautiful! I am swooooooning over that Delicatus White. It looks fantastic with your cabinets!

What a fabulous space! Congrats!

Your before kitchen was very nice but your after kitchen was WOW! I love the Delicatus White Granite so much that is perfect for your rich dark cabinets and your beautiful backsplash. Thanks for sharing.

Gorgeous! And so glad you included the family picture!

All your elements come together perfectly. Can't decide what I like best. Enjoy.

Really beautiful! Congratulations!

So beautiful!!! I love how the backsplash turned out and the lights look perfect. Hope you were able to cook something last night and then allowed the dishwasher to do the cleaning :) Enjoy your space!!!

Very nice!! Your lights are awesome. Enjoy that beautiful kitchen!!!

Very nice! The granite is stunning.

Your cat has stolen my heart. ;-)

What a sense of accomplishment you must feel! We all know the work that goes into creating such a special space. And, boy, it shows! Love the Delicatus...it works so well with the cabs. Ahhhh...enjoy!

Great job. Your backsplash looks incredible.

Truly a fantastic space and your granite is STUNNING! Just another reason why I always seem to be drawn toward white granites... beautiful

That granite with that cabinet color is one of my favorite combinations. Adding that particular tile makes it stunning.

It's simple, beautiful, elegant and stunning all wrapped up together. Loved looking at the slide show. It made the project seem so easy with no problems at all (lol). Everything you picked out is just gorgeous. Give yourself a great big pat on the back. You sure deserve it. I wish you much happiness in your new space. It looks fantastic.

Could you post a picture showing your stove area??

Thanks again for the comments and warm wishes, GW friends:)

chris..I am not quite into the 21 century yet, as I still use a 35 mm. camera with old fashion film,(hence the quality of my pictures)... So pics with the stove will be available as soon as I use up and develop my next roll. But I can tell you that I didn't do anything fancy with the backsplash above the stove. Kept it simple:)
P.S. love my sink...thanks for your persuasion on that one!
