I was just thinking about the brick. I like having exposed brick in a home. A friend of mine just stained her brick fireplace and it looks really good. Just another alternative to paint maybe.

Too funny–a Search on Pinterest for "brick floors" shows YOUR AZ kitchen! Repinned about 16 times! Somebody likes your 'paver situation' :) I think Pinterest shows very nice kitchens with brick floors. Lots of white, some gray. Just a thought, since you'll redo all in 6-12 months…paint the brick around range, walls and cabinets, add in your new lighting & hardware etc and I think you could live with pavers as-is for a bit :-) IMHO, it's the granite that's being bossy…BTW, your energy is amazing!

Jenny I am so envious of the 'bones' you have to work with, even if it is just to make do until you do a new kitchen. I love the multitude of spaces, I envisage a butlers pantry, and can't wait to see what you can do with paint and some new hardware.
I too bought a house where the previous owner had spent money on new appliances and counter tops and I have the same granite. This is not something I would ever choose myself so I'm going to watch with great interest to see how you make these work.

Looking forward to the next instalment of LGN in Arizona!

Your 'vision' never ceases to amaze me! I would be totally overwhelmed by a project like this house, and yet you seem to have thought about every detail and I just know the finished result is going to be INCREDIBLE. I'm so jealous. I can't wait to start seeing the transformation. Best of luck.
