    Thanks for showing this. We have been putting off new countertops because of the price. I read through it and my husband is on board. Can’t wait to try it!

    I’ve heard that painting laminate can give them a beautiful new life. Are you doing that in your kitchen?
    Have a good weekend. Cindy

    Hi Manuela! Oh, I’ve heard of this and have even seen some countertops in Blogland. Have you done this to yours? I’ve thought about doing this in my little laundry room. I just have a little space around my sink and it’s ugly. Maybe I’ll get the nerve one day. Hope you’re doing well.
    Be a sweetie,
    Shelia 😉

      Well I think a little area like that would be a perfect place to try a technique like this. Home Depot/Lowes also have countertop paint kits – have you seen those?

    This is an interesting idea.

    I’m not sure if my husband would be on board, but changing our counters is not an option anytime soon!

    I would never be this brave:) Looks like an awesome way to update the counter tops! Have a blessed Sunday, HUGS!

    I’ve thought about this for some of our countertops! Seems like a great, yet inexpensive way, to change the look of a room. Though, I do wonder if it’s safe to roll dough on the painted countertops afterwards.

    Thanks for sharing!! I have seriously contemplated something along this line to give my kitchen a finished & coordinating look. I’ll have to share this idea with the hubs … I know he’ll find it inspired too!

    Have a wonderful week!!
