Here's a better shot of the fireplace

Looking towards the kitchen (so you can get an idea of the proximity of spaces - kitchen/dining/living). Gotta love tiny condos! :(

Oh and the fabric draped over the dining table and chair are the drapery panels for the dining window and slider.

I love your drapes,and they look great in the space.

As for your question, I think they would all be fine. What do you want? I would choose the one that is the biggest change from what I had.

Thanks mtnrdredux. This is what I HAD ... white tile counters and orangy oak cabinets!

So the white cabs and dark counters are definitely a change. I've had the Raven in for about a yr, but the kitchen has been inoperable so I haven't really gotten the full effect of the new look.

Also, thanks for your comment about the drapes. I like them too. The are a light gray with a little brown and lime green. I made the mistake of laundering them (following the washing instructions) before hanging them and they SHRUNK a full 8 inches in length. So what I am planning to do is insert a panel of green bordered by white toward the bottom like so. (Found a lime green that matched perfectly.) Either that, or will do a solid white panel inserted.

The Frosty Carrina and Pietra Gray are in the 2nd and 3rd rows in the link below. Have you thought of the London Grey at all? It's looks as though it might blend well with your wall color.

Personally, I would get a sample of the cabinet paint on a piece of wood, and then take it to the nearest dealer who would have samples of the Caesarstone, rather than trusting views online, though.

my3dogs - Thanks! I actually have samples of them all :) including the London Gray.

The Edgecomb Gray wall paint actually looks more on the beige side than gray in IRL - at least in my space. In looking at it next to the LG, the LG just looks sort of muddy.

And I'm not sure if the FC looks to creamy with my cabs. I will try to get some pictures but the colors never really come out very well.

I personally like the Raven the best because it has the least pattern; however, they all look nice, so it'll come down to your personal taste.
And yes, Edgecombe looks more beige (at least in my house). Revere Pewter is grayer.

Love you drapes but take them back for replacements! If you laundered them according to the instructions and they shrunk, the manufacturer should replace them.

nosoccermom - Thanks. I do like the Raven. And since it's already in, I know what to expect. Wish I could see the PG on a larger scale - I know there are some GWers that have suggested they would be putting it in. I'll have to search to see if I can find some pics.

bbstx - I wish I could return them. Found them at TJ Maxx and/or Home Goods and had to hit 3 different stores to get the number of panels I needed. I'm sure I would not be able to find them now. I can make it work. Thankfully they didn't shrink in width. I'll just have to make the inset panel larger than I had originally anticipated.

I think they are going to look fine with the band. Have you thought about putting the band at the top, bottom, and leading edge? I think it would look sharp to border the panel in lime and add a tiny fold of the white between the green border and the print fabric.

When I was trying to decide on Misty Carrara or granite eons ago when I re-did my kitchen, my fabricator arranged for me to go to the Caesarstone warehouse and look at an entire sheet. (Well, I'm not really sure he "arranged" it. He was supposed to but he frequently failed to follow through. I showed up at the warehouse and told them my fabricator had sent me. They looked a bit puzzled. Regardless, they took me into the warehouse and showed me what I was looking for.) See if your fabricator can arrange for you to see a whole slab.

bbstx - That sounds too complicated :) LOL! I can sew but just the basics! :)

Did you end up with the Misty Carrera? Now I am wondering if the dark colors will make me crazy. I just had a friend over and we were looking at the samples in the kitchen and comparing with the Raven that's installed. When she left there were fingers prints all over the Raven on the peninsula. Ugh!

Anyone else have problems with finger prints on dark counters? Will it be less noticable with a lighter stone?

I think Linelle in Kitchens has Raven.

Hi may_flowers - I know she has a Caesarstone, but I don't think it's Raven. I believe theanimala and smarge both have Raven. Maybe I will try to ping them and see what they have to say about the finger prints.

Oh hi, did I hear my name? :) I have Caesarstone Smoky Ash.

Hard to tell on monitors, but to me it looks like the Pietra is more towards brown.

BlackChamois: I saw your posts in Kitchens. I didn't realize you wanted to see the PG installed in pics. I had it installed this spring, one of the very first, I believe. It is on both white and stained cabinetry.

It does not show fingerprints but it will show some dried liquids. The veining and depth of color hides these things pretty well, and they just wipe off, of course. I also considered Raven and FC, but the whites are challenging to match/

There are a bunch of photos in my reveal and my photobucket (just click through on any picture)

gooster - So pretty! Gosh I wish I had room for an island. I love combining the wood with the painted finish. When you're indecisive like me, that gives you the best of both worlds. Sometimes its to hard to choose just one! And I love your pops of green!

Here are the counter samples against one of the cabinet doors ... PG/FC/LG sitting atop the Raven peninsula counter.

And one more ...

No, BC, I did not end up using the Misty Carrara. I used Santa Cecilia granite instead. I want the durability of granite. Although I think Caesarstone is very nice, I didn't want to worry about setting a hot pot down on the Caesarstone. By the time I did that kitchen, I had had 2 kitchens with granite and had gotten sloppy in my trivet-using habits.

Good luck to you. I think any of the 3 would look great in your kitchen. Have you thought of throwing a dart? You can't go wrong!
