That said they have some good stuff. We got some clay for our basement walls (one of the products they didn't know much about) and the beautiful cork in the kitchen (one that they did). Here are the latest pictures!

Can't wait for the finished product! I'll also post where we bought the various items.

The apron sink was a great choice with the floor plan. It really looks great!
Are those Ikea cabinets? I was thinking of using them in our new kitchen but we live in Florida and I'm worried that the particle board won't be able to handle the humidity.
Marjory, they are Ikea. We live in DC which can get pretty humid, but I'm not sure how they would stand up to the humidity of Florida (I grew up there!). The good news is that they have a 25 year warranty (provided you keep the original receipt). Of course replacing them would be a huge hassle, but the warranty definitely made me feel more positive about buying them.
They also have solid wood cabinets that are more expensive but that might be more appropriate for your situation! They were a bit beyond our price range, but they are really, really nice looking.
Thanks Nicole. I think we're going to go with Ikea. I was looking at the cabinets in Lowes and Home Depot and frankly, I think the Ikea ones look better anyway. Thanks for the tip about the warranty. I'll let you know how it goes (if it ever goes).
