Default KITCHENS - Pictures please!

I have just loved reading the post about whether people love white kitchen cabinets or not. (Does everybody like white kitchen cabinets?). Mostly I have loved seeing pictures of other people's kitchens. I think it would be really fun if you guys would share some more pictures of your kitchens. Old, new, remodeled... whatever. I am moving there soon. Need to do a little work on my kitchen, just not sure what yet - or if I want to do anything at all??!!! It would be a great service to this newbie! So post those pictures folks!

Did our kitchen. Added an island, granite, floors, still need to replace the appliances. Will do as soon as any one of them dies. Probably do stainless, but still undecided on that.

The next photos are of our rental home where we painted the pink cabinets gray, replaced the granite, and did a new back splash.

Never mind. Pictures must have been too large. Will try again later. Want to show new SLATE appliances. They do not show fingerprints at all

We have the white cabinets that are vinyl covered, and if you have the coffee pot or toaster under them, they peel away from the heat. Just a wake up call on white cabinets.

Default purchased at Lowe's

My only warning: When you have s/s appliances be careful because if
you get a ding, sometimes difficult to remove..Need to use hair dryer and dry ice for removal

Default Kitchen

We have the Camellia model. So when we started we did not have the tiered cabinets. Had Formica counter tops and the small creme colored tile.
We put in glass front tiered cabinets. Moved the ones we replaced to the laundry room. We did granite counters and back splash. Tore out all the tile in the house and but in 20 X 20. Tiled the front of the bar. And of course the thing we get the comments on added the double ceiling fan. Also in the wasted corner of the Camellia and Gardenia we built cabinets for that area.

Default Slate appliances

This is the only picture that isn't too large to post. It shows the new slate appliances by GE. No fingerprints is a real plus.

Can't tell from the picture - does it have the same sheen as stainless?
