wow what a great days work! i like the streamlined look alot. and the granit is goergeous...what is it?

Very very lovely!!! Natural maple? What cabinet maker? So tranquil and clean looking.

Oooh, those are the cabinets I wanted but dh vetoed. Very cool kitchen!

Wow. It looks great. You are really in the homestretch.
For cryin' out loud, shut the oven light off, and crack open that bottle and put your feet up!!!

Wow seems to be the word here, and I second it. Beautiful!

It's gorgeous!

Beautiful granite and well deserved wine! Cheers!

Really beautiful! Do share granite details. I'm not a granite fan generally but this works really nicely with your cabinets.

Ahhh--so sleek and sophisticated. Very, Very nice.

Oh, so pretty! I just love it! Is that a gray silgranite sink or a stainless? What a great job you did. Congrats!

Ditto on IC's comment - great day's work!! That kitchen came out of an magazine; I just know it did! Great for cooking and enjoying - especially wine for 2 - LOL.

Looking great! Faucet details please!

Wow! (Again.) Normally I think two islands makes too many barriers in a kitchen, but it looks like it works really well.

Details! Details! Details! We need Details!

Thanks for all the great comments! I'm so glad you like it :) I really owe so much to all of you for your help and inspiration. Here are some details...

The granite is called New Aran Blue - it's really not blue but grayish brown. It has little crystal inclusions that I just love.

The cabinets are custom from Country Cabinets in Uxbridge MA - the same shop that did mnhockeymom's! So a huge thanks to her as I read about her experience here and decided to take a ride out there. They are natural maple with a white stain and everything is bookmatched (grain is all lined up on doors, drawers). They were amazing and I highly recommend them to anyone in MA regardless of style. I really believe they could do ANYTHING.

The sink is gray silgranit. I was planning on stainless but I had a thought that I'd rather have it blend into the granite. Read everyone's rave reviews here and voila, a sink was ordered.

The faucet is a KWC Eve (no light). Much thanks to sue in ct who helped me out with that. I was originally going to order from Chicago Faucet Shoppe but then I found out that you could make an offer at Faucet Depot and I figured what the heck - they accepted an offer that brought it to the high end of my acceptable price range :)

Sally - there's really only one island - the second pic is a peninsula that took the place of a half wall into what will be a lounge. We're thinking four comfy chairs and more wine!

Thanks again everyone!
