Tricky Tracy

 Feb 24, 2011

Tracy emailed me to tell me that she painted her counters to look like granite. I almost emailed her back to say, "I think you meant to write that you REPLACED your counters with granite." Silly Tracy.

Obviously that is just new granite, right? Right? Wrong-o! She was telling the truth.


Check out her blog General Splendour to see how it was done with nothing much besides paint, Martha Stewart glitter and around $115!

Awesome! I'm with you - she replaced them! No way that's 'faux'. Great job, Tracy!

OMG! This is incredibly gorgeous...I'm headed right over to check out her blog. I was just reading all about faux painting of counter tops last week on a website where lots of people were showing off their painted counter tops. Some looked fantastic, some not so great. But I think this is the best one yet.

I love that she used glitter! Very clever. Plus, it's not like you could have made that before countertop worse! lol
