Kitchen cabinets and countertops

My favorite part of the house, the kitchen is really starting to take shape. After the kitchen cabinets were complete (minus hardware) we started our journey to find a countertop. Our original idea was to go with a very dark almost black soapstone. Unfortunately we were not able to find exactly what we were looking for, but found a great substitute and even saved some $$ in the process. We ended up finding this (see below) Cosmos Black slab of granite at Cost Less Carpet, right in Walla Walla! 

 

Below is a sample of what it looks like on the counters. It is hard to tell in the photo but it does not have the typical, sleek shiny granite look to it. The texture is quite different.

For both the master bathroom and upstairs kids bathroom we went with Carrera white marble. The black vanity below is the master and the light grey is the upstairs bathroom.

 

I absolutely love the hardware we did on this vanity. The light green knobs just make it look so unique!
