I have to bowls the same size. The only advantage I see to the double sink is that you don't have to keep your drainer up on the counter. You just have to be careful of silverware going down the disposal. I use my double bowl with the disposal on the washing side and the drainer on the other. I have to bowls the same size.

I could not imagine myself keeping cabinets that would have had mold on them. I think I would have had to replace them. This was a great article on cleaning cabinets.

Aside from the black galaxy I really like another color, but I cant seem to find it anywhere (the name of it) and I went to a few different places and was unable to find it. It looks much like your Santa Cecilia, but much lighter on towards the orangey side of it. Thanks again for your time.

I recommend to my clients a complementary scheme between the granite and the floors and to use a full backsplash. The full backsplash is great because the cost delta between wall tiles and granite is generally less than 5% of your kitchen, and returns a more refined look. Regarding the peninsula: * It is perfectly normal to have cabinets on one side. * The peninsula usually hangs out by an extra 12 inches. Thanks for visiting and best wishes, Lionel Young Dear Peter,

Also, as far as the backsplash is concerned, is it ideal to use a full granite flush or 6inch granite and tile up the wall? What is more common in a 350 sq ft. kitchen? As far as the peninsula our concerned, our size consists of a 3 x 5 with cabinets on the inner side of it, do most folks put cabinets on all sides of the island or just one side like us? As far as the granite size for the peninsula, do folks generally let it hang out by an additional 2-3 feet? Thank you Lionel for your time :) Hi,

One would think that this is easy but I am findiing that I have spent more time tryng to pick these colors than I spent on picking out names for my children!!!!!!!!!!! It is unbelievable and really starting to tick me off. It should be simple. I have shaker type maple cabinets. I want my color combinations to be earthy.......browns and creams. I do not want a ceramic tile floor......I want linoleum and everyone is yelling at me! Linoleum is not as hard on the feet, things do not break into a thousand little chips when you drop them and linoleum is not cold! Further, to me it just seems more durable and easier to clean. So having said this...............any idea's for a combination color scheme? Why is it so hard to coordinate backsplash, counter top granite, and cabinet colors?
