We move in this upcoming weekend and wanted to share a few pics....bear in mind, its a total mess at the house right now, but I was too excited to wait until everything looked perfect! So if this actually works, here are a few pics! My favorite things are, well, basically after a few hiccups, I am thrilled with it all! |

| It is very pretty! I can see why you are thrilled with it. Such a pretty view with all the trees too! Cute pendant lights. So, you will have to list all the "ingredients" when you get a minute. |

| Looks great!!! |

| W.O.W.!!!!!!!!! Beautifully done. |
|
| Absolutely gorgeous! This is my dream kitchen. More details please!!! What is the height of your ceiling? How large is your island and what are the dimensions of the kitchen? Great job so far, I can't wait to see it finished!! |

| Thanks everyone! We are actually adding more crown molding above the kitchen window, as an after thought! I forgot to post a few pics of the butlers pantry and walk in pantry (maybe later today) There are still tons of things to do design wise with furniture as you can see (any input with stools would be great, I want four stools that will tuck neatly underneath the counter, but that will take me quite a few months. I have a quick minute to give a few details: Cabinets- Crown Point Cabinetry in Pointing and Chestnut stain on Sapele |

| snbtwins- Thanks, this kitchen has been ALOT of planning and late nights looking online! Dimension wise, it probably feels larger than it really is. If you include the space between the edge of the island and the dark cabinets (3 1/2 feet) , as well as the stool side of the island to the steps going down to the family room (approx 8 feet), the size is about 19 x 20. It also feels bigger because of the open space to the kitchen nook (14x 12). DH wants a 8' table there! The island is about 108" x 55" (I think it actually came out a tad smaller) |

| Simply Beautiful!! What is the back splash- can you share?? Gorgeous!!! |
|
| Very beautiful, no wonder you wanted to share right away. |

| The backsplash is by HRJ and its a crackle white 3 x 6 subway tile. Very thick and adds another nice texture! |
|
| As everyone has said, really gorgeous. What a pleasure it will be to work here. Thanks for sharing. |

| Your kitchen is absolutely gorgeous. Congratulations on a labor of love. We were thinking of going with Crown Point cabinetry. How did you find working with them? Quality and pricing? Did you go to their factory in NH? |

| NY128- Working with them was fine. I felt like I did a lot of the leg work and planning though. I felt like they just went with the plan I gave without adding too much else, but it was ok, and worked out great! The cabinets speak for themselves. I did go to the factory, although after seeing a few samples they sent in the mail, I did not feel the need to, nor did I think it "sealed the deal". However my husband loved the tour and enjoyed seeing the assembly line. I knew I wanted crown point from the first visit I had from the sales rep. They were gorgeous. I was also able to get a decent discount. I cannot say enough about the quality. Its absolutely the best made kitchen cabinet. The extras are quite expensive, so if you can limit the glass and the amount of separate cabinets you design you can save money. My initial design had my darker cabinets coming down to the counters and I had all kinds of other design features with columns on the edge of island etc., I had to cut those out because of budget. My hardest decision was the darker wood color because I wanted to make sure it complimented the ebony floors. But there are so many choices and you can't go wrong. My advice would be to ask for a designer that has been with crown point for a long time (10 yrs plus) as they may be able to add more based on their experience. Everyone at CP was a pleasure to work with though. Hope this helps! |

| Gorgeous! Any chance you can post the layouts and elevations? The dimensions are helpful, but more information would certainly be even more helpful. Thanks! |

| Looking Fabulous! Love the granite, counters but most especially the banquette area???? Looks like the perfect spot for it with those gorgeous windows looking out on the great view! Love the tone of the dark cabinets with the lighter ones and the floor. So wonderful for you. |
|
| Really, REALLY pretty~ Nicely done!!!!! |
|
| Hi kamkar2006. I would love to know how the Rohl Cinquanta faucets are working out for you as well as the Quatrus. I am probably getting both. Your kitchen is beautiful. I can't seem to find a sink to look at in my area, so I am only going on what I see online. |
