Day 2 of the Kitchen Counter Renovation

When renovating your kitchen counters that are hideously colored blue (with craft paint and resin of course), you should do the following:

Step One:  Invite lots of help for your diy endeavors.  Oh, and lots of sponges and craft paint:



Step Two:  Make Sure there are lots of menfolk in the invitees to remove the sink.  Dude with the dark blue shirt and white beard is my Dad.  Shhh!  Don't tell, but he just had his 66th birthday two days ago!






Step Three:  After shooing away all the menfolk,  I rolled on the same paint that I used on my cabinets and wall trim:





Step Four:  This is how it looked when we first started sponging on the craft paints.  Pretty yucky huh?



Step Five:  But look what happens when you add a bit more:





Step Six:  After several (like a hundred more) trips to the table back and forth to where the craft paint is, step back and admire how pretty it looks so far!



Next step, Resin!
