Kitchen: A few updates

For some reason I didn't get a full shot of the kitchen, but here are a few updates to share.
Before:
Now:
I know it's not the same angle, but I wanted to show the difference in the microwave over the stove and the stainless backsplash. How great do the painted cabinets look? Also the black granite adds a nice contrast to all of the lighter finishes in the room and helps tie together the appliances.
 Here is a pic of the fun pendant that coordinates with the dining fixture. I am going to make some cafe curtains to add some color to the windows with a bright printed fabric.
 We used some of Oma's old pieces that were found in the cabinets to add some personality to the corner. This scale is in perfect shape as well as the mini bunt pan!
 Before:
This was the awkward space with the stand-alone dishwasher and mounted microwave. It was kind of a mess.
 Now:
The dishwasher has been moved to the right of the sink and mom bought an island that can be moved around the kitchen if needed. It also can house wine glasses and has 3 handy shelves. It even folds up if you need more space!

Before:
Now:
 We used some more of Oma's old baking pans to add a little something to this wall. They already have a loop for hanging so it literally took about 3 minutes to make a huge difference!

A Quick Look At The Bathroom Progress

Here is the hall bath before:

 Here is an in-progress (cell phone pic). New porcelain tiles (smaller version of the kitchen ones)
It's also getting a new pedestal sink and toilet.
Here is a shot of the master before:
And currently: The same granite counter that is in the kitchen and the same floors as the hall bath.
It will also get new hardware and lighting!

A Peek At Some Kitchen Updates: Granite and Porcelain

Where we started:
From the last "in progress" pic.
I am not there with my good camera, so forgive the cell phone pics, but here are some updates!
 Pretty new custom granite counter tops.
 They look so nice with the white.


 Where the stove usually sits.
Check out the lovely granite spokesmodel! Happy (late) birthday Aunt Amy!
And here is a peek at the porcelain floors! It's hard to see the true color but they are white with gray and beige streaks.
