Kitchen Remodel: Materials Used

Here are the materials we used for the kitchen:

We bought our faucets and kitchen sink from George Morlan Plumbing

Oil Rubbed Bronze Kitchen Faucet

Kohler Bellera K-560-287

Insinkerator Instant Hot Water Heater F1000S

Insinkerator Instant Hot Water Heater Oil Rubbed Bronze Faucet F-GN1100

Stainless Steel Sink

Blanco Stellar 1.6 Stainless Steel Kitchen Sink 441022

Backsplash

Let me just take a moment to say WOW and THANK YOU to my two amazing tile guys.  It took two, expert tile guys, two ENTIRE days JUST TO TILE, and one extra day just to do the grout.  The mini 1x1 bronze tiles only required one cut, but each of the 2x2 tiles required two cuts each.  And the pattern created a bit of a time consuming, detail oriented challenge.  But the results were amazing.  Such beautiful artwork!!

Here is an up close view, before grouting, of the backsplash

So, now on to the materials we used for the kitchen:

Rug (pretty design over the oven, under the hood)

Outside trim (picture frame): Questech Oil Rubbed Bronze Braided Rope Ogee 3x12

Creamy colored inner row: Salerno Nubi Bianche Floral Accent Strip 3x10

Westminster Cast Metal Half Round Rope Copper 1/2 x 6

Emperador Light Marble 4x4

(My fabulous tile guys cut the 6x6 downs to 4x4s, then sliced them at a diagonal.  They rock.)

Grout

We had to use 2 different colors of grout for our kitchen tile.  The first was Fusion Pro Charcoal (for all the oil rubbed bronze tiles) and the main one was Fusion Pro Light Smoke.  We have TONS left over.

Here you can see the light smoke grout.  So pretty.  Who knew?

Here you can see where they taped off the lighter areas to grout with the charcoal grout color

Super awesome Justin, my grout guy.

The cabinets

The cabinets we bought from Crestwood Cabinets in Washington state.  They are cherry cabinets with solid wood interiors, and have a Cherry Cordovan stain on the front.

The granite

We bought two granite slabs called "Typhoon Bordeaux," 3cm, from Brazil.

The Lights

We picked our recessed LED can lights from Lowes.  We bought them in 2 packs, then had SO much light at the end of the project we had to hire the electrician to come back and insert a dimmer switch.
