Trickle down theory...

...of home improvement. Once you start...it just seems to keep going...

First we replaced the counter tops with granite (always in the plan from when we had the house built seven years ago)...but, then we needed to replace the stove because the old one didn't really work well with the new counter and it was white and seemed to stain even with boiled-over water...so we replaced it with a black stove (I am not a fan of stainless steel...mostly because I can't spend my life cleaning off the finger prints... :o)Then we added drawer pulls and cupboard nobs...
...we recently replaced the dishwasher because the old one started to sound like a jet taking off and didn't clean the dishes that well...

...which is next to the old white sink and really didn't look good...so we replaced the sink and faucet...

...now the white microwave near the black dishwasher and black sink doesn't look good AT ALL...plus, the double ovens and refrigerator are white and will need to be replaced...will it ever end???

We bought new pendants lights and are waiting for them to come in...we will put those up over the island counter...then, we are having someone come tonight to give us a quote on refacing our cupboards...we need to have the hardwood floors redone within the next couple of years.

See? Trickle down.

I am so jealous. I want a new sink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have a black stove (hate it) and I would love to replace my counters...but it was never in the plan and only something I want so it may never happen
