Making Kitchen Changes

As silly as it sounds, we found a refrigerator we love in (fingerprint resistant) stainless, on a clearance sale. This saves us hundreds of dollars while we enjoy an amazing refrigerator. Here it is:

We weren't crazy about the combination of stainless and white, but think stainless and black look good together, so we made the change to black appliances. We also upgraded a couple of our appliances to better meet our needs (they are whirlpool after all, so we might be using them for a long time :). Our appliance combo will look similar to this, which we think looks sharp!

We changed our cabinet color to a slightly warmer "Toffee" color, and are going with a dark countertop to tie it all together. When we eventually do a backsplash (after we move in), we'll do something light to ensure the room is not too dark. Our colors (cabinets, appliance, countertop) should look similar to this:

So, now our kitchen is done and locked in, and we can move on to the next set of decisions. On another note, framing has started. The walls are not yet in, but the subfloor is. Last night we walked on our main level, which was very fun. Will update with pictures soon...
