And Foyer. This picture also shows the stained finish on the interior surface of the front door.

Here's some task lighting in the kitchen.

Here's what we ended up doing with the fireplace. We used 12x12 tile that looks like slate. Still needs to be grouted and we have to come up with some way to trim out the transition to floor and wall. But, I think it will look OK.

Here's a picture of the kitchen that is similar to the task lighting shot. Here, I used a flash to better show the tile backsplash.

Here's the backsplash behind where the stove will go. I'm sure it looks better in person than in my picture. This is another example of where my wife bout some tile and told Corey to "make it look good". I think he did. Again, still needs some grout.

You may notice that the top row of tile has been removed. Although it about killed Corey to undo some of his hard work, it was the only way to get the exhaust hood to fit. In fact, he also had to remove the underlying sheetrock.

Here's a picture of the faucet we are using in the kitchen. This is at the small prepsink, but we have the same thing on the main sink. That one was broken when the plumbing guy was attempting to fix his installation mistake.

The picture makes the fixture look kind of like pewter, but it is really a dark, oil-rubbed bronze finish.

This is a different view of the same thing. rox, you can see in this picture that the backsplash has been fixed to provide cut-outs for the electical boxes.

I'll also mention that in this photo and in the pictures of the tile backsplash, you can clearly see the almond or white outlets and faceplates. They will be changed to brown or black to look less obvious against the tile / granite surfaces to which they are attached.
