Phase 132,329,445 Of House Remodel
So here's a few pictures of the new countertops. Now, mind you, these pictures don't really do them justice. In these pictures, the counters look almost solid black, but they aren't at all. I should've tried to get a close-up of all the different colors in it, but most likely no one cares for that much detail.
Clearly, from the look of the walls and other details, the job isn't done. But this was one of the most rewarding phases of all. I still walk in the kitchen and feel surprised when I see "real" counters instead of melamine. What a concept!! They turned out so nice.
(If you'll notice, my faucet also doubles as a weapon.)
(And in case you're wondering, that is NOT the new floor! It's always been my most hated part of the house and it'll be about the last thing that goes. And boy, I can't wait! I'm gonna miss that floor like a sharp stick in the eye.)

no, the floor isn't green---it's a disgusting yellow. Yellow! Who wants yellow floors?? When we moved in, the floors were yellow (um, still seem to be too), the dishwasher was avocado green. The cupboards were yucky brown. The counters and all appliances were pink. Yes, pink. Now, the pink appliances were a nice soft pink and actually probably ARE the rage right now in some styles. Just not mine.

That is one beautiful kitchen ... very classy. The faucet is huge ... you could almost have a shower under it !!!

hah! We actually joked that the kitchen faucet could, in fact, double as a shower if that became necessary! :) Let's hope it doesn't.
