Despite the best laid plans, there is frequently something out there that puts a stop to the flow of change. For the kitchen, it was having the piece for the sink cut just a bit too small. So, a new counter is being cut for the back corner of the kitchen. But with an undermount sink, that puts the kitchen out of commission for a little while.
Still, with some luck the counters have started going in with little other issue. The island itself is completely done, and looks wonderful. There is a seating counter on one side, and with the unfinished areas underneath, I hope to be able to paint it to flow just a little bit better.
The consensus was Silestone Mahogany, which looks extremely rich in the space. It has a lot of browns and reds with just a touch of gold in there as well. It's the perfect element to ground such a light space. With the oak cabinets and creamy yellow walls (which will be painted a little richer down the line), and light wood floors, it's good to have some richness put back into the space.

For the edges, I love that she chose a beveled edge that is clean and simple instead of doing something more square. The simple round lines also highlight some of the upper cabinetry in a very classic way. I can definitely see how the whole kitchen is going to come together seamlessly.
I am very glad to see how these are coming in, and I'm ecstatic for the other planned changes to follow: the backsplash, new sink, great faucet, and a much more modern kitchen.
In other news, all of the proceeds raised in my marketplace will be matched dollar for dollar by PADI (one of the international organizations for diving)! I'm very excited to see what happens with how much we can donate!
