• old kitchen when we first bought the house: http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b5dd10b3127cce913fc1b4962300000016108AZOGLZw0Ytf
• New flooring and added a "window"...this was done when we first moved in 2 years ago: http://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b5dd10b3127cce913fc607d60b00000016108AZOGLZw0Ytfhttp://im1.shutterfly.com/procserv/47b5da07b3127cce9102cc2290f100000026108AZOGLZw0Ytf
• And this is where the remodel started
  I tried to paint the tiles white but hated it so I started to take them down

• And the finished product with new sink, faucet, stove, countertop, and tiling

• any suggestions on hardware? I tried this small brass handle on the left cabinet door, but not sure about it.

Details:
The countertop is laminate Mystique Dawn from Home Depot...bought right off the shelf with the mitre cut. The tile wasn't evry difficult to remove but there was a LOT of morter left on the wall. We tried out best to chip it off/sand it to get a somewhat smotth surface to retile over.

This is by no mean a new glamourous kitchen like some of the ones I see here. This is updating a townhouse kitchen on a very tight budget (about 1k). That includes a new stove, countertop,sink,faucet,garbage disposal, and tile. We're trying to decide on new hardware and whether a new dishwasher would complete the look.
