turquoise with envy
Beautiful job! I wanted to do the boomerang thing so bad and by the time I finally found the samples, my contractor's time was getting short and they said we'd have to wait 8 weeks on delivery of the laminate. I may go back and re-do the counters just to get them.

oh and for Bob (appnut)
Hi Bob, my DW model is a KDI-61, it says Imperial 21 on the front console. It is a 1984 model, one of the last couple years that HOBART was still making these machines (until 1986). It was a portable that I converted to "built-in". It was mint condition interior when I found it, hardly used. Its a tad noisier, but I love the look, especially with the SS panels which I also added. I actually kind of like the noise/sound. Its got that "industrial" edge. It does a phenomenal job cleaning anything, even burnt/baked on food. Its one of the best "cleaning" dishwashers I have ever used. I tried to install my SS Frigidaire spin tube DW from '62 but it was to tall by 1/2". Oh well, I love the KA. Take care --gregm

Hi Greg, those Boomerang countertops are so much fun. You kitchen looks wonderful, I love the turquoise fridge too!
Wonderful, Greg!
It looks awesome, and the gloss was a good choice.
I love that sink. I want to adopt it or marry it.
Kohler, American-Standard or ??

Awesome material, that Boomerang countertop. Nothing better than good oldfashioned formica!

Looks fantastic, Greg. Very cool. My folks had pink & grey boomerang on their counters when I was growing up, with stainless steel edging. You did an awesome job!

We have the same countertop in the kitchen, but the counter top is white.
thanks guys .................
as much as people love the counters, I am getting even more compliments on that light. When its the only light in the kitchen on, it has a cool effect with the "holes". I love it too. This is the current stove I have opposite the sink. I am going to take a few other pics when I finish painting the walls the second coat.

ooooooh it's so shiny!
I LOVE your kitchen! I think you've done an excellent job. From the counter top to that fabulous light above your sink, and now I see this stove you have and I'm all melty. Beautiful.

I was thinking they must smoke their breakfast too!
I thought the white one posted here a few days ago was bad enough....but this one is even worse! turquoise,white,pink,green,rainbow freaking brite, I don't care what color or how old...that's just ridiculous
Although, I will give them this much, this range is really really clean inside and out, one of the better kept ones I've seen in some time. If there was a guarantee it was totally updated and safe as far as wiring, a collector might pay as much.
But I thought it would look fantabulous in Greg's kitchen. Not that the range he has in there now isn't lusty enough!
