Kitchen Renovation Inspiration Part 4 - Put it all together

So I've found all my inspiration and now it's time to put it all together. Please take a look at my ideas and let me know what you think. I'm still trying to figure out a paint color and back splash, so all suggestions are welcome!

Cabinets
We selected American Woodmark cabinets in the Savannah style with the Hazelnut Cream Glaze finish. I love these and dream about them daily. Yes, I really said that out loud. They will look similar to this but in a cream color with dark brownish accents, instead of bright white.


Countertops
We went ahead with Granite because it was about the same price as everything else. Plus the new granite doesn't have to be sealed! Yippe! We got Solarius. I am hoping that the golds & dark browns in the granite will tie in with the brown accents on the cabinets. *Crossing my fingers*
Cabinet Hardware
Since all the hardware came free with our cabinets, we selected something similar in style to this. The color is almost an exact match.

Appliances
We bought all our appliances at Sear's during their GREAT Labor Day sale. While I'd love to show you each and every appliance that's just not possible. Plus, I don't think you really care that much. The important thing is that they are all Stainless Steel and I REALLY WANT TO USE THEM!

Lighting
Well, we haven't purchased them...YET. Here is what I am thinking for the lighting. Since we have an L shaped kitchen (with absolutely NO room for an island) and our ceilings are too low for a pendant-type light, I was thinking about going with some cool track lighting like this. It's a little modern, definitely different, but I think it will still keep with the clean & simple look we're going for.


We haven't decided yet if we are going to keep a full table in the kitchen or get a small round pub table. Either way I'm thinking of this light for above. Since it's going over a table I don't really have to worry about the height. Right?


Flooring
We decided to continue the tile from the hallway into the kitchen and use the same color. It's a very basic biege/cream that is super easy to clean. The best part? We got it for $0.57/sq ft!!! I know right? We'll tile our entire kitchen for under $100. Love when things work out.

In case you are wondering, the tile is Summer Bloom from Home Depot.
