some big decisions have been made over the weekend. we've nailed down

some appliance choices, going with an LG fridge and using a Bosch microwave

over the Bosch stove we already have and the same brand for the dishwasher.

which is so quiet that it needs a little light on it to tell you it's actually on!

the sink is pretty much decided, with a deep undermount sink similar in size

to what we have now...and much less gross.

still trying to figure out faucets. our upper cabinets/shelves are hanging a bit

higher than average which gives us room for one of those

cool commercial faucets. thoughts?

Em&Ger recommended 3 of these gorgeous steel pendants over the sink/floating shelf wall (scroll down to see the amazing 3d drawing). these will be the 'jewelry' of the room as chris says...with a hefty price tag to match...stainless steel pendants are a girls best friend?

oh my god. i've been meaning to post these for a while now. here's are some amazing 3d renderings that team Em & Ger did for us (with some mediocre photoshopping by me). Aren't they unbelievable?!!

I have to say, seeing these has been the most helpful thing! With so many materials to think about, alot of them things i've never even seen in person, it's great to know that

all will be harmonious when all is said and fabulously done. The lower cabinets

on both sides of the room are a darkish gray with the upper cabinets on the

west wall almost white. On the opposite wall there'll be floating shelves above

a gorgeous undermount sink. The countertop is a mottled, moonscape looking

caesarstone that's a very light gray and white, and then white oversized subway tiles

on the backsplashes (correct size pictured). Oh! And all this on a natural cork floor.

More updates on the specifics to come.
