remember how i was feeling optimistic in this post? well we haven't finished everything quite yet, but have definitely made some progress. i posted a picture in that post of this.
yes. its a DIY painted countertop kit. jake and i would love to put granite or other expensive counter top in, but it just aint gonna happen for awhile. instead we have been searching for other ways to update our countertops cheaply. the cheapest way we found was to buy the pre-manufactured laminate countertops or glue on some formica. but then we came across this kit. its a little bit more money, but not by much. about $50 -$100 more. we decided to go for it. here's our step by step of how we painted our countertops. hilarious. painted countertops. who'd a thunk it.
what comes in the kit.
old rounded oak molding along the countertop edge. we removed the rounded edge and put on a new squarish molding piece.
taped and covered cabinets and sink.
scrape off extra shavings after it has dried for 12 hours.
