Comments (4)What is the box that you painted on next to the shelving? As a fellow DYI'er, I think that you are way ahead of yourself. First lower the electrical box if you can or move it the center of those windows. That would visually drive me insane to have a box in the apron.Then patch the hole. Wait until you have the lower cabinets or a mock up with cardboard boxes in to decide about the shelving. If I was putting in just shelving there, I would want them centered and longer then 48". I would think a minimum of 72" for balance. It depends on what you have planned in that square. Also think about what will be happening under those shelves before putting in a wine glass rack. Are appliances going there? Will prep be done there? Will those glasses hanging down drive you insane because they are in the way or your afraid that they might break....See MoreWhat to do with busy granite
Comments (42)Reopening this thread to say I have finally almost finished this kitchen! This is my personal home so it sat on the backburner for a few years while we finished our vacation rentals. I am happy to say we are finally back to this house and this is what I ended up choosing. With the busy granite almost everything clashed. I wanted to do a beatiful zellige tile for the backsplash but everything I tried didn't mesh well. I ended up choosing this tile from Lowe's and it worked well. It gave it just enough movement to flow and not compete. We still need to build the floating shelves and add the vent hood and the pasta filler. I ended up going with a black one and black faucets I found on Amazon. Thank you to everyone who commented with suggestions. I will post again once everything is completely in place. I'm very happy with how it's turning out!...See MoreInstalling floating shelves with a glass exhaust hood.

Comments (2)Also assess how you organize and use your appliances. If you keep that much stuff out all the time then I question investing a lot into a backsplash and you may as well try painting yours. Also, open shelves above a full counter just looks like chaos so again, really dig deep into what you are feeling ‘tired’ about. Maybe hire a local organizing pro to really help you cull and streamline and that might be the pick me up you need....See MoreDuke Cabinets Inc
