See attached pics let me know what you think. next step is to install some granite counter tops I just could not get myself to upgrade to granite on the out of date cabinets but now I love them!

Looks good. I've been planning on changing out the countertops in my kitchen as well, but my cabinets are slowing me down. They are too nice to tear out, but I'm wondering if they'd look ot of place if I left them. I'm sure cabinets are a budget breaker.

Always nice to do stuff like that yourself and save thousands...
as to granite... don't do it!!!! at least until you look at quartz... benefits/drawbacks to both... I chose quartz, no yearly sealing needed, won't crack if a hot pan is set on it... more color choices

ive never looked into quartz. I will do here in a minute. although ive had granite before and love it and the best part of it all. my father is a tile and granite contractor. the will basically get me free granite if not very cheap and low to no labor costs so I cant beat that lol that will save me thousands. ill talk to him about quartz though
this seams contradictory or did I miss understand

I would go with quartz or recycled glass. These are cheaper alternatives.

Wood looks good.
I must be getting old, I like the natural wood and granite more than the white plastic-laminate look now. As long as I don't have nightmares of a cardigan with my name on it calling for me, I'll be alright.
