the counter is very neutral. Do you have hardware chosen-I'd get a theme going with backsplash and hardware. Can't say because so many things work with the counter-bronze /pewter hardware or the new polished nickel I've seen is a little more showy-for backsplash-pull the malty cream out of counter or darker glass mosaics-black-dark grey for drama[with the polished nickel hardware!], or white glass,or plain off white ceramic tile with darker grout for interest-just what do you like? Serious or more of a fun,bold look??

I haven't choose any hardware yet. That's another big decision. I want brushed nickel, polished nickel, or chrome (no ORB and cup pulls). Style wise, I like neutral, clean, tranquil looking, and nothing too crazy. I will post more pic once the cabinets are in. They are starting on Monday. In addition, the wall in the kitchen will be Zephyr Hill, which is also the color of my living room. (I can't figure out how to make this picture smaller).
