My Kitchen - Part 1

Being an artist, and faux painting my clients homes and businesses all day - I don't often have the time or energy to add my creative touches to my own home.  However, I recently moved into a home that was built in the 1970's - and it was in desperate need of a "face lift".  Here is what I have done with my kitchen counters and back splash.

~ 1970's Butcher Block Formica Counter tops - Before, also note the dark cabinet color ~

~ Kitchen Counter tops After ~

~ They have been faux painted to look like granite ~

~ And I've added pressed copper tiles for the back splash  ~

 ~ I'm pretty pleased with how the counter tops, back splash, and painted cabinets have all come together ~
