Well the second shot looks pretty good. Is the first pic anywhere near the second picture ?

[LA_MERC_LaTech]

Which corner is this? Where the office was (the door to the office) or the one to the stairs? Looks good though...and green >> the orange

It's a pretty new kitchen but I couldn't get past the baby in the first picture..

Babies are everywhere now!! TO CUTE!!!!

[LA_MERC_FragFood]

Um, that's not the same kid in the second picture, right?

If so, you work too slow. :D

Nice job, man.

Baby in first pic is my niece. THat is my Bro-in-law and his wife.
The corner is where the office door used to be. The dishwasher in the second pic is sitting where the doorway w/ the shower curtain is in the first pic. I will try to get a better pic for before.
Tech ans sLing stop over for a beer and check it out. I have hockey till 8pm tonight then I will be home.

Just a suggestion ... tile the backsplash and seal it. It makes a huge difference and it's easy to maintain. It's an extra cost up front but you'll like it in the long run.

[LA_MERC_th33_r00k]

The backsplash will consist of a 6" piece of SIlestone and 1" square tiles.

You can come re-do my kitchen if you want..

The one thing lacking in my kitchen Dragonlady is the wife barefoot loading the dishwasher. At the same time, I didn't want my pictures to look like a commercial.;)

[LA_MERC_Dragonlady[s]]

LOL... Oh goodness me. Well you did a great job.

[LA_MERC_goose]

Rook, show us the pictures of the backsplash when it's done ... it's sound like an eye catching pattern.

[LA_MERC_YellowDog]

Yea show us a picture of the wife's back splash when your done :)

[LA_MERC_Dragonlady[s]]

Oh goodness yeller...

[LA_MERC_th33_r00k]
