My kitchen inspiration

Ok, the BF and I are planning everything out for the kitchen renovation. i need the following items: dishwasher, gas range/stove, over the range microwave, sink, garbage disposal, and faucet. I've been searching the internet for the best deals and i always come back to two locations: Home Depot and Overstock.

The house still needs a lot of work, but it's liveable now, if you can do without a kitchen for a while. I'm not much of a cook so that's ok for me.

This is what i'd like to see happen in my kitchen. The original kitchen cabinets will remain in the kitchen, for now. You might not know this, but my main concern right now are the bedrooms and the bathrooms, the kitchen is secondary.
