Thanks mydreamhome. I'm going to work on that. You've made it look easy. :)

Hi!
I just found your posts on here, and I'm dying to see your pictures. I too thought Cambria Canterbury was what I wanted, but am now second guessing myself and New Quay is one of the options I'm mulling over (I have white cabinets and a coffee brown floor). Are you pleased with the New Quay with your cabinets? I'm stressing out about my options.

Do you think if I send a nice note to Cambria that I will get a nice cheese tray?
I am putting in the Buckingham - second guessing myself as I can't find any tiles that make me happy. I am sure I will succeed - as no going back now!
I wanted a warm color kitchen - we have a lot of gray days around here and anything that feels sunny is a help!

Can't wait to see pictures!

Sweetie--fell in love with Canterbury the minute I laid eyes on it. Totally had blinders on. I looked no further. It looked great with the island (maple sorrel with a dark glaze) but after I saw the cupboards installed I knew it just wasn't right for me. All I saw was that sea of white cupboards and knew I had to put the brakes on the Canterbury. If you saw a previous post, the Canterbury was already templated and a week had passed.....All week I agonized and knew it was the wrong decision for me. I called the KD and the quartz was not cut yet so she was able to put a hold on it. Took another week and brought several more samples of quartz with white backgrounds home. I really took my time on this and knew that New Quay was what I was going to get when I laid it on top of the cupboards.. Of all the decisions in the kitchen, this is my favorite. New Quay has a lot of grey and white with just a bit of khaki. There are some tiny "diamond" chips in it too. You don't see that from far, just close up.
For me, the Canterbury just wasn't right with the white cupboards. If they were more creamy in color, it would have been fine, but they are definitely white.
I still need to pick out the subway and have been thinking white all along, but now am leaning towards a very pale grey.
Oh, my floor also is a kind of light and darkish coffee color...it's an Asian Walnut from Casabella called Champagne (definitely not light).
I have all stainless appliances so I like the blend of the quartz with them.
To me, it's all very calming and I don't find it cold at all.

I hope all you Cambria countertoppers get a cheese tray...it's a nice piece of stone! I know they didn't send it to me for a flawless transaction! They're probably still talking about me :(

Oh I hope I get one! I am almost sure I want Newport but am thinking about Torquay too!

I love the Cambria Minera and Whitney! We have ordered the Kabinart Arts and Crafts cabinet in Honeywood finish and the floors are a medium oak. I have had on "blinders" as well after seeing the quartz countertops, but everyone seems to go crazy over granite. Any thoughts?
Peonybush, your kitchen sounds gorgeous...please post pics!

I have a Caesarstone counter and the installers gave me a 12x14 "cutting board" with little rubber feet. I have no intention of using it as a cutting board, but I guess it would make a fine cheese board. When I was selecting a backsplash tile, I lugged it around to tile shops, before I realized that most places also sold Caesarstone and already had samples there.

I assumed everyone who has a granite/quartz/marble/soapstone counter gets one of these.

Oh! I cannot wait to see! New Quay is the one cambria sample I have at home and I love it (I think...)!

Help. Ordered new quay Cambria countertop and not sure what tile backplash to use. Creamy white cabinets with stainless steel appliances..

Thanks
