How About Counter Top Preference too with your choice?
I am remodeling an entire house. I love interior decorating I do it for fun and alwasy buy and fix up houses and sell after a couple years. I am not hiring anyone its too enjoyable for me. Just seeing what you'd like to share. I am going for a baroque scrolling type decor for adjoining Family room which you can see from Kitchen. I am excited but overwhelmed with decisions. Would love to hear what others chose for themselves. Thanks.
I like scrolling designs, acanthus leaves, vines, carousel horses, medallions. I don't know what kind of baroque that is? Not Too Gothic

My ideal kitchen would be in the Tuscan 'style'. I toss between warm ivory and deep mahagony. Black iron for the hardware. Country style sink in brushed stainless. High goose neck faucet with a single handle. Tile back splash behind the sink/counter area. Brushed steel behind the stove. Fridge to be faux covered to match the cabinets. Counters to be a natural stone look, Dupont has nice products for this.
Floors would be wood or tile only.
I don't like microwaves that are above the stove or below the counter. When I 'nuke things the containers usually get hot and I wouldn't want to risk dropping it on my head or the floor. One that is "garaged" on a counter to allow for lateral movement is best.
Thanks for the reason to dream - one day I'll get it!!
Good Luck! I'm currently teaching my 4 year old that girls who use power tools are cool !!! I'm right there with you on the do it yourself boost.

I picked the color of my current cabinets a medium stained oak. I don't care for the light/bare wood look, and really dislike the painted wood.
I thought I would like the floor tiles. They look nice enough, but without basements where I live, they are too cold in the winter. I have actually covered them with laminate flooring. A shade darker than my cabinets, & I love it. If you do tile anywhere, install the under floor heating. That is the only way I would ever consider it again.
What kind of baroque decor are you doing? I did a search on it and had all kinds of options, french baroque, italian, modern, english, and spanish baroque decor. Wish I could do this, it sounds like so much fun, lots of work, but fun.

Cherry cabinets are definitely my favorite, because of the richness they have. Granite counter tops in a darker color would also be on the top of my list for a dream kitchen. Good luck on your remodeling! It does sound like fun!

Hickory, ivory, slate and marble.
