Shopping Begins!!











We've had a couple of exciting shopping days since this weekend and our kitchen is starting to pile up with the smaller things like faucets, light fixtures, etc. I also went on a trip to a counter store with our contractor this morning and we picked out our countertop! We decided on Corian, with a semi gloss finish, in the Maui pattern, which is like a brown/charcoal color with lighter flecks throughout. We have also bought our floor tile, which is a beige color that is textured so as not to be slippery and the texture makes some swirly-type patterns in the tile. We have chosen the wood for our cabinets (Natural Maple), but not the actual cut-out design for the doors. I tried to take a picture of our samples all together, but I don't know if the colors are accurately portrayed in the photo. Gives some idea though (click on the photo for a larger view).

That is the exact floor tile we did on the walls in the bathroom! I brought in alot of browns and creams and it all mixes well. Good choices!
