We have a great table with really special BLACK iron(?) legs but we need chairs desperately (pink or black) and I'd settle on chrome hardware at this stage!

These are for counters, though, not necessarily cabinet doors. On that front (pun!) I will have to do more research. I am not too keen on the thought of the cracked ices - also I think the stuff is way too expensive. How about something wood-toned?

I wanted to us a yellow laminate to do a countertop & (in other rooms they have used the laminate to cover cabinet doors) I wanted to cover some cabinets. Do you think w/ the tile choice, yellow sink & toilet that the yellow cracked ice laminated would be the best choice? Thanks for your help!
