After much browsing here and other sites, I decided that I wanted to keep my existing white cabinets, add a soapstone countertop and chrome fixtures. Something that would have been in style 100 years ago maybe. I have slate look tiles on the floor and found some silver sconces at the habitat store and am looking at silver mirrors on Craigslist. I have a very visible tub that needs a tile surround and a not so visible shower that needs tile too. So while I am trying to pick those, I find out how expensive soapstone is - more than twice the price of granite. So I am stumped again. I am posting a picture of another color scheme I like, but what for the shower and tub surround?
