Judie Re: another colours thread... 3Mar 04, 2009 10:20 pm thank you for adding those samples.. i was trying to work out how to do it, but not quite that smart
its only the isalnd bench that im having stone. but i did like the platinum essa just not sure whether to do a similar looking laminex on the others, or something different, so it doesnt take away from the stone?? Re: another colours thread... 4Mar 04, 2009 10:45 pm I;m not sure about your options, but we chose the sable luxe tops, and at this time of night, I can't even remember the cupboard colours!

if you stick with these colours rest of your benchtops could be squareform which would look good Good luck Re: another colours thread... 6Mar 18, 2009 1:26 pm thanks for the imput, after looking at the colours over and over we ditched them!
