Kitchen components and inspiration

Dilemma: The art of doing nothing in my free time, which I did a lot of nothing on our travels, vs renovating, fixing home so it looks the way I want and I can enjoy it the way I envision it.

It has been several months since my kitchen was gutted and I have enjoyed moving around in the open space and cupboardless walls.  I have been able to formulate ideas. Realize limitations vs wants.  I didn't want to purchase anything too soon, lest I change my mind, but I feel confident about several components and ideas that continually repeat in my mind.

Textured slate flooring:

Wood and stainless steel (counter tops and appliances). The kind that exudes warmth.

Art in the kitchen

Open shelving & sink. Love this rustic sink and the tiles. I'll have to stop here and admire the beauty... 

and now time to go shopping...
