Re: Who wants to help?

  • I think I like butterfly the most.  It seems it has the most uniform pattern out of all of them. I actually think that might be similar to what's in my kitchen.  I like the first one the least out of all of them.  I think it's too busy for me, it may also be due to the color cabinets, I don't like it together.  What color are your cabinets again?

  • Also, with the darker colors, you will be able to see water spots but nothing horrible.  We use the Method granite cleaner from Target, and I really like how it makes it nice and shiny again.

  • Our cabinets are a medium shade brown.  Not too light. 

    I'm leaning more towards either butterfly or ubatuba.  I think the first one is neat to look at but I'm afraid over time I would get tired of it.

  • I think I may have something like Ubatuba (sp?) in my downstairs bathroom.  I wish I had pictures but I know I don't.  The bump picture from Wednesday is the bathroom where I think the Ubatuba is, but i don't think you can see much detail.

  • I think MH and I are going to go to Lowes and Home Depot tonight/tomorrow in the hopes they will have a larger display of some of those colors.  We're getting our granite from a semi-local guy who specializes in the granite countertops and he'll bring down the samples of what we want to see, but I would like to see it on a much larger scale.  It's so difficult to pick.  Plus, I have to match it to my kitchen floor (which is orangish).  Luckily we are redoing the backsplash but I have in my mind what I want to do for the backsplash and I have to pick my granite to work with that also!  Too many choices.  :/

  • Here we go - this is what the kitchen looked like when I looked at the house the first time.  The green pot hanger has come down and the appliances are now all black.  And the handles on the cabinets and drawers are now square and black.

    I agree! I think ubatuba would look great with your floor and cabinets.

  • I think I'm leaning more towards ubatuba.  The name's fun too.  haha.  If I ever convince MH we should redo the bathroom I might use one of the others.
