That makes sense. I just abhor manual labor and have little patience. It's looking great though, excellent for a reference.

Okay... Any advice/tips/instructions for a plate rack? I want to build one above my sink... But have NO IDEA where to start...
*Updated*
Just wanted to share some updated pics.
New cabinets, light fixtures, counter tops, soffit painted
We bought the "Wine" pictures when we were up at the cape over the weekend. All's that is left is to finish some trim work around the top of the cabinets, new electrical plugs and switches (white), crown molding, and trim paint as well as finish the wine rack to go above the refridgerator. Then on to the living room floor (Pergo).
Look on page one for the initial pics on how the kitchen looked.
Let me know what you think...
I'm in the process of building a wine rack to go in the space that is just a cabinet box right now. Both this box and the box above the microwave I built by hand.

Good job man. I love the white cabinets with the stainless, and the salmon color really accents the room and gives some great warmth.
My mom has some awesome wine pictures, and best part is I get them all when I move out.
One suggestion I'd have it, is throw some white crown molding, or a thin shoe molding at the top. Something with a corner, and it really help break up the cealing and it would help cover where you messed up with the paint and tape. Also you could look into a premade wire wine rack and just trim it to fit, as my father has one that would probably fit in one of the cabinet you have. It'd save some time.
Overall, I really like the set up, and the bathroom as well.
ps. Im a lowe's vet.
Edit: I just read that again. You already said you're going to do crown molding. Doh. Great minds think alike.

Those lamps that look like towels in the bathroom are neat.

awesome yO! I work at lowes also lol and have done a tile floor in my old house and drywall at one of my past jobs. And you make it look easy Definatly a great job and good luck with the crown molding. I tried a handheld coping saw and i dont have the nerves for it.
