Sara from Whimsies & Whatnots had counters that looked like this:
So she painted them and made them look this:
Aren't they pretty:
So my friend Michelle (who knows Sara in real life) decieded to use the same technique and turned her counters from this:
to this:
Pretty amazing what a little paint can do. Even for counters.
You have to clean them really well. Paint them (and do a little splattering to get the granite effect) and then you seal them with Enviro-tex. It is a great way to give your counters a new look when they are good counters, but just not cute!!

Amazing :) My husband sent me a link to a company that makes "granite" paint for counters, but now I can't find it. Just amazing!!
It sure does Michelle! ;D
I think you just saved my kitchen posting this! Thank you!
Very cool! I'm so glad I found your blog. Great ideas you have! Thank you for sharing them.
WOW. I am REALLY impressed! I've never heard of that before!
Thanks for linking us! I hope people try it! You can do it!
I sent this link to my sister and she is so excited she is going to do hers!
Oh my goodness! My jaw is on the floor! I can't believe those are painted. They look great - please give us updates on these over time - I'm interested to know how durable they are and how happy the owners are with them.
I know I would screw it up. It looks great, though.
I'm amazed. Truly. I never would have thought you could do something like that and have it turn out so well.
I so want to do this!! But I have finish painting first.
I just found your blog today and instantly hearted it. But what paint did they use? I would be interested to on how well they held up. Even if they didn't it's going to be a new weekend project for me anything is better then what I have!
Wow! This is amazing! Your blog has tons of great ideas - I love it!
