Jeannette Noyes poses in her newly remodeled kitchen in her Indianapolis home. The kitchen, designed by Sandi Perlman of Blue Ridge Design features Formica-type countertops. Noyes saved a lot of money with her choice: The estimate she got for granite counters was about $4,000, compared to $800-$900 for Formica. AP Photo/Michael Conroy
