The Granite Is Installed And My Nerves Are Calm!!

Whew! If you read my post earlier today then you will know I was a little nervous about all of the demolition going on! As I was sitting here doing my post a piece of my island flew across the floor, but it all worked out in the end! I am VERY pleased with how it turned out!! The granite really gave the kitchen an updated look! I am loving this rock! lol... The color is venetian gold btw.
Everything came out great! I was relieved when I saw that none of my tiles were broken! They had to shave the back of the granite just a hair so it would fit up against it. I was worried about that...but it was no big deal and they knew what to do. It looks perfect! You will notice I don't have the faucet installed yet...hopefully we will get it done tomorrow.

I had to do a little touch up under the granite where the Formica came down, it wasn't bad though.

This is the new sink! It's much deeper than the old one. I'll have to go tomorrow and buy the drain thingys...didn't realize they don't come with the sink!

This is my new faucet...it has a soap dispenser with it. Love it!


This is the corbel that broke during demolition. You can tell where they glued it back. There is a gap at the top so I have decided to replace all of them anyways...with something like this. What do you think?
I will do a total before and after on the kitchen for the next Met Monday. I need to take the pictures in the daylight. For now, I am off to bed. It's been a long day and I can't even think straight.








I am very pleased with how everything turned out! Thanks to the 5 of you who told me everything would be ok!! You all were right!
