Was it swiftlock brand?
This floor is a creamy color with hints of gold, gray and brown "veining".
Now trying to decide on a color for the laminate countertops.

Honestly I don't remember the brand. The extra boxes got left in the garage along with the window screening, paint, etc for the tenants/PM to easily make proper repairs.
I'll post a pic once I can get on the computer.

I love the floor. Are the counter tops already there or are you getting that kind?

It's not my taste (I love that black granite look) but it looks fine.

Went with the over the range microwave...  Cabinet frames and walls are all painted, still working on the doors & drawers. I lined all the cabinets shelves with peel & stick vinyl tiles:  Today's project was opening up the wall between the living room & dining room. Before:  Version 1.0:  I changed my mind and we opened the wall more!  Version 2.0  ;D |

I painted the fronts of the shelves.
The shelves don't move, so I didn't want to take on painting the backs/sides inside the cabinets. Way too much work/hassle!
My poor body can't take too much more detail painting.

My countertop guy is the best!
He came today to re-measure for the countertops.
While he was here, husband asked if he could make two doors, to match the other cabinet doors, for the space over the microwave...
He said he could. Okay great!
When I asked him how much, he told me $20 each!
Hell to the yeah! Husband probably couldn't buy the wood for that much!
I can't wait to get all the doors back up - the kitchen is really going to look great!

That's good! The doors will look a lot better. What is that little piece of wood above the microwave on the right side?

LOL! Someone finally noticed/asked about that piece of wood!
This is the house that idiots built/updated.
When the area above the range was originally built/updated, that piece was used to hold the "top" of the area up. There is a 3/4 board behind the face holding the soffit and left side of the cabinet in place. It's hard to describe how it's all put together. It wasn't originally a cabinet, just some shelves.
In order to remove the piece on the right side, we would have had to take down the soffitt that goes to the ceiling.
There isn't even a way to cut the piece down to hide it behind the face frame, so when the doors are up, it will be hidden by the door.
It was originally hidden by a 1 x 6 on the face of the area. We cut the 1 x 6 down to match the existing cabinet next to the stove.
