My granite was installed today and it looks great! Good thing I was there for the little details but I think everything will be OK. Here are a couple of pictures.

My kids call the granite "cookies and cream" which is fine by me. Appliances and plumbing tomorrow!

Wish my kitchen was that big. I'm envious.

It's funny because almost everything in this house is twice as big as my last house but I've been here so long that I'm used to it and it doesn't feel big.
There used to be cabinets hanging from the ceiling over the closest counter in picture 2. Taking those out makes it feel even bigger.

Wow, sewmom, I love your 'cookies and cream' granite countertops. Tomorrow may be hectic with the plumbing going in, but the beautiful kitchen will be worth the wait. It is certainly a lovely sight to behold. Thanks for posting the pictures; it gives one hope!

Verrrrry Nice!! It would be nice to have a new kitchen but I will never see anything new again! Looks alot like you are going to have to prepare some very great meals to make up for lost time! You should be real proud because it looks wonderful!

I think a mattress would fit in the middle of everything.

That is beautiful "Sewmom" - my kitchen is being dismantled on 5th July and I am looking forward to my new one going in. I can't wait to see the transformation.

Love and blessings Chris

Hope you share pictures too. I haven't done a lot of remodeling but the one piece of advice I have is to always be home so you can catch the mistakes before they get too out of hand.
by pennifold 18 Jun 2010
Thanks for the advice - I hope I'm here the whole time! Love and blessings Chris

Thanks, it was an accident and a product of language barrier but I love it. I didn't think there would be an actual window sill but there is, made out of granite. Yay. We also didn't decide to put the granite all the way up to the window until they were making the template and I realized that it would look funny to have the 6 inch backs plash and then a short gap to the window. Anyway, I think the granite is my favorite part of the kitchen so far.
