I saw a thing on it was either DIY or HGTV...cant remember which one right now...but it was talking about this stuff that you can paint on over your current counters to make them look and feel like real granite for just a smidge of the price it would take to get actual granite.
I am going to be redoing my mobile home in bits and pieces and have been watching all these shows and boy have they got my mind racing...lol. I have tons of ideas and a beer budget. I would love to be able to redo my counter tops because they are just a mess. I certainly couldnt afford new ones though. If this stuff actually works it would be worth trying.
Im already fighting with Tony about removing the island that came with the place. I want it gone because it just takes up too much space and if I ever do need an electric wheelchair which I know is coming, I wont be able to move freely in the kitchen. I have found a small butcher block island at IKEA for less than $200. I even found a used dishwasher on craigslist for less than $100. Once we can get the boys out, we can really start to do some work around here. We are going to start at one end and work our way forward. I think we are going to try and either do this cool new vinyl wood flooring a found or laminate from the bathroom up the hallway to the kitchen and family room. Leave the carpet we have now in the Living, dining and bedrooms. Maybe get them professionally steam cleaned.
