It has been nearly 3 years since we started finishing our basement. A slow go but now we're nearly done - just a few finishing touches (some baseboards, quarter round, and finish installing the faucet). We used Ikea Sektion cabinets in Bodbyn gray. I absolutely love them! If I were redoing my upstairs kitchen, I would definitely use Ikea cabs. The butterfly corner sink is also Ikea. We left the sink in the corner, as our upstairs sink is in the corner and that's where the drain was. Moon white granite, SW Lazy Gray paint, Crossville Silver Screen porcelain tile. After-the-fact, we realized that we could put another 36" glass cabinet on the wall (left of the one that is there now). We may still do that. Ikea makes it pretty easy to add on.
