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!

February 24, 2011 at 8:26 PMOMG! 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.
