I had my tub done professionally at a good price. I called the same lady and she wanted $300.00 per bathroom vanity top. I felt that was too much and you make it look doable. Ok, my next project by me. Thank you for easy step by step instructions. God bless your delivery and your family.
Great job Shannon ! Turned out great and you are right they really do last. I did my son’s bathroom over two years ago using the exact same method and products and I really wasn’t sure how they would hold up especially since I knew doing my son’s bathroom would be a true test (always water, hair products, toothpaste etc left on counters not wiped up lol.. ) well it’s held up great n really does give a big impact without breaking the bank.. Love y’all color choices really looks phenomenal 😘👌🏼👌🏼
You did an AWESOME JOB!!! I have seen painted faux Marble counter tops and they never looked as good as Your’s does!! You did an excellent job!!! I have a small bit of marble on the vanity in my small bathroom. Your’s looks exactly like it! I love it! Thank You for sharing all of the products and techniques that You used. The others that I saw used feathers to make veining and it looked fake! Your technique with the tiny paint brush and following up with the softer large brush and rag made Your’s look real!! Excellent job.
you did a fabulous job and truly transformed your kitchen. You gave me a headstart on a table top that I want to marble. A small suggestion for others-get a small piece of marble and keep it in front of as you replicate her finish. You can get a small amount from Home Depot. Thanks again for showing me how!
Oh my goodness Shannon...yall's counter tops look amazing! As always, thank you for sharing your center top makeover with us! Stay safe, healthy and positive! God bless you and your family! 🙏❤🇺🇸😊🌲
I was admiring your countertops in your last video. I did not realize you painted them... It looks amazing! Love the what you did to the backsplash as well.
Thank you ! Very timely I have bought the package from Amazon but I’m nervous about the the whole process but after seeing this and reading the comments I’m more excited about it. You did a great job especially with the marble look 👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️👍👍
I'm glad I saw this video. I was gonna go with a spray paint method to make my countertops white but this looks way easier and way less messy. Great job, that's a nice before and after.
Bless you for sharing ! The transformation is impressive-I’m particularly struck by the depth! It’s so variegated, the layers and organic line-play are spot-on- your final outcome looks absolutely natural and utterly gorgeous. I’m definitely going to refer to your technique to guide the reclamation of my own (scuffed-up, peeling, though oddly sized) dishwasher top.. Ive been messing with porcelain tile configurations all morning, and nothing fits like i thought it would! I was panicking before i saw this-so thanks for the much- needed inspiration!!!
I loved your video, great idea & communication,very enjoyable. I've been researching resin but will try your technique instead! I have an old old house, $40 is perfect. Yours Looks wonderful!!
Love it Shannon. We have those same exact yellowish countersops. Our house is over 60 Yrs. old. Not quite as old as yours. I've had everything to do this project for over a year now but have been really nervous to do it. Thank you for doing this video it has given me new motivation and encouragement. Could you also please do a video on how to diy a faux brick wall and a faux barn wood wall. TY ! 💕
I love how this turned out!! I have a countertop in the bathroom, I'd like to try this on, before tackling the kitchen. TFS and your tops turned out beautiful.
Turned out great! I love that look. I would suggest that anyone wanting to do this that has never done it before should do a practice board to see what they like. I do prefer a high gloss top coat but that is a personal preference. I think it really comes to life with the sealer coat
I would’ve used a thin bead a caulk around the sink. That the only thing different that could’ve been done. The project was expertly done and made me happy 👍🏾👍🏾😃
I painted my first house from wood to white and it turned out nice. Now my second house I am on doing the same. Great video I actually sat and watched all of it lol.
Hi Shannon. Loved the counter top and back splash. Ive been wanting new backsplash and counter, so now for now, I think I will do mine just like yours.
I use oil paint or epoxy that dries slower and then paint the veins in wet in wet, so the colours blend naturally together without any effort from you. Oil or epoxy paint is also more durable for countertops than acrylic paint. I have experimented with untangled rope or a bundle of twine (ca. 10-15” long) to apply the veins, dipping it in the grey colour and dragging it haphazardly over the wet base colour. That makes the most natural look but requires a bit of trial, error and experimenting on a separate board until you get the confidence whip away passionately.
LOVE THIS!!! SOMEDAY I AM PLANNING ON UPDATING OUR KITCHEN. WANT TO CHANGE MY UBER DARK CABINETS TO OFF WHITE & NOW I CAN ALSO CHANGE THE OUTDATED GOLD COUNTER TOPS TO SOMETHING LIKE YOU HAVE DONE! REALLY LOVE THE FACT THAT IT WON'T BREAK THE BANK!!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR SHARING WITH US!!! LOVE YOUR CHANNEL!!! YOU ARE SO HANDY!!!
So happy to see you did the back splash also. Just what I have been looking for. My question is have you ever thought about using epoxy as a final coat for endurance?
Wow! That’s awesome! 🤔 my counters and cabinets desperately need an update. How does it hold up to getting food stains? Can you use cleaners on it that would be used to get rid of food stains etc.
This turned out beautiful! What a hugs difference it made in the look of the kitchen. This makes me want to try this on my bathroom counters. I have been wanting to update them but it's so expensive to replace them with what I want. I could replicate the colors in the marble I liked with this now that I know the technique. Thanks!
Beautiful look. I want to do this so bad. Yours turned out great Shannon. Your redos in your home are coming along beautifully. 😊 I noticed another one that you did but I don’t think you did a video on it yet. That turned out great to. 😉 I won’t mention what it is but love ❤️ it. I didn’t know you could do that. Thanks for sharing and God Bless you and your family. 🤗
Wow they look great!! I’d love to do that to mine but I’m so afraid I wouldn’t get the same results. I’ve been thinking about painting my cabinets too but I’m on the fence with those too lol, I to nervous to commit yet. Tyfs, hugs 🤗 Teresa
Teresa Plans you can also use marble contact paper the epoxy resin. I like to blend the lines with flat white paint or to get rid of some of the veins. Very inexpensive. You could also tint the epoxy as well!
I painted my cabinets about 3 months ago and they turned out beautiful. You just have to take your time. I took off all the hardware, sanded and painted. It took me a good week to get all that work done but it was worth it. I used the kit that can be purchased at Home Depot. You can do it.
Shannon I'm sooo lost! I have been off of YT for a while so I'm back and watching, trying to catch up! Did y'all move again? I know you moved about a year ago (give or take) and this kitchen, workshop, front porch.... NOTHING looks the same!!!! I hope I come across a video that puts the missing piece together for me!!!!! LOOOVE your countertops! They look amazing!
Jami Gray, yeah i noticed the same thing after watching this channel most of time lately and not sure how I miss this one. It apparently they moved again....look forward to Shannon s reply
FYI for anyone looking for Glidden. The company sold and the new company store have a different line. They did not rename the Glidden colors they only carry their colors.
How has it held up in the past year? I've been told these steps should be done with an oil base product instead of water base simply because you may get your counter tops wet. I don't know, I'm just saying what I've read. Thank you, great tutorial.
I did mine 6 years ago. Held up good. I used RustOleum countertop paint. I now have some chippy areas especially around the sink so I am going to sand everything, touch up the areas and then re-coat.
You can always research & look into using heat proof epoxy over this for the future 💖💖 so many good brands like Leggari have tutorials. Or if you have a budget try a less expensive epoxy. I’m going to try marbling different tinted concrete on my countertops. Then an epoxy sealant
WOW....this would be a lot cheaper than what I found on RUclips and the company is called "Stonecoat Countertops" You actually should start a business.....WOW this is really awesome. I have the similar color countertop as you did BEFORE you re-did them...and you did such a great job! Love it!
I was thinking of doing this to my way to outdated countertops. Can you tell me if you still have the same countertops and if so, have they held up after this past year and a half?
New subscriber, hello from Alabama.... I might try this on my counter top... I'm always busy in my home too lol.... Hopefully I can pick up some great tips from your Channel..
This turned out great! Do you have to reseal it ever or should it be good to go forever? We just painted our tub and shower and I'm ready to paint all the things!! 👍😂
This was truly amazing!!!!! We were thinking of getting new counter tops, but after seeing this, I will be trying you’re method!!! It really looks beautiful..
Hi I love them...I absolutely love the marble look anyway. I'm wanting to do something with my countertops...I have 5 different ones...and their Formica I believe...it's a Mobile home. Had it for 16 almost 17 years now and there Emerald green. I'm Soo tired of them. Might give that a try. Thanks for sharing. You. Have a blessed day.
>>>3 YEAR UPDATE! Did they last? Click here to find out: ruclips.net/video/AFWVcg-PcJA/видео.html
I can't believe how well it turned out!
This is the first video I have found that explained the entire process and mentioned the brands used. Thank you! Great job.
What product did you all use?
Thank you for showing us a cost effective way to update kitchens. I learn so much from your videos.

Something that I would have never thought that counter tops could be painted. Turned out great really brightens up the kitchen.
Looks so different after you changed it. The subtle veining is natural looking. Nice job.
Oh my goodness Shannon...yall's counter tops look amazing! As always, thank you for sharing your center top makeover with us! Stay safe, healthy and positive! God bless you and your family! 🙏❤🇺🇸😊🌲
Really like the dimensionality you gave it with more than one color of base, and veining!
I was admiring your countertops in your last video. I did not realize you painted them... It looks amazing! Love the what you did to the backsplash as well.
Your project turned out beautifully!!! What a difference!! AWESOME JOB!!! So clean and crisp looking 😉😉😉
Thank you ! Very timely I have bought the package from Amazon but I’m nervous about the the whole process but after seeing this and reading the comments I’m more excited about it. You did a great job especially with the marble look 👏👏👏👏👏👏❤️❤️❤️👍👍

I'm also doing my kids bathroom first. Lol. They can't wait. We'll see I guess! Did you do yours?
I'M DEFINITELY TRYING THIS ON MY ORANGE BAR TOP. THIS LOOKS AMAZING. TFS.
THERESA GUEST, did you do yours?
Turned out great! I love that look.
I would suggest that anyone wanting to do this that has never done it before should do a practice board to see what they like.
I do prefer a high gloss top coat but that is a personal preference.
I think it really comes to life with the sealer coat
Does it matter the brand for the high gloss top coat? So it doesn’t yellow
I have always loved black cabinetry 💚💚🐦💚💚
Hi Shannon! I am considering painting my countertops. I was wondering how yours have held up to use?? Thanks bunches!! :)
Great video with clear instruction . Thank you
Awesome job it looks great. Thanks for sharing the process.

Fantastic video! It turned out so amazing and you did an excellent job of explaining… thank you so much! 🤩
Im glad I seen this as I have the same primer and paint, but everyone keeps telling me it won't work, thank you for showing this
How did it turn out? I need my husband to go out of town so I can do this!
Really nice and so much less expensive.
What a transformation. You do great work, even when u r sanding, etc. You look cute. Tyfs
Great results, just bought a house that needs this exact touch! Thank you

Shannon, this is Amazing!!! So beautiful and I love that you painted the tile backsplash too!!!!
It looks like they put up beadboard
Oh my gosh, this looks amazing! You are so talented :)
Totally AMAZING! You're my hero! Have a great week! Hugs!
Shannon that turned out great. I would be terrified to do this.
123 primer is Excellant when applying a gloss paint on top.
Beautiful look. I want to do this so bad. Yours turned out great Shannon. Your redos in your home are coming along beautifully. 😊 I noticed another one that you did but I don’t think you did a video on it yet. That turned out great to. 😉 I won’t mention what it is but love ❤️ it. I didn’t know you could do that. Thanks for sharing and God Bless you and your family. 🤗
Just live your video, it's just the look I was after. Thank you again.
Oh how beautiful that turned out!
FANTASTIC!! Really great look!
Nice job, going to try that!
That came out beautifully!
I see you painted your backsplash too. The primer made the countertop look so much better.
Amazing transformation!!! Great job! I ♡ your channel!!
Wow they look great!! I’d love to do that to mine but I’m so afraid I wouldn’t get the same results. I’ve been thinking about painting my cabinets too but I’m on the fence with those too lol, I to nervous to commit yet. Tyfs, hugs 🤗 Teresa

Hi there! Can you please list the products used in the video? And/ or a link next to the products where you purchased it? Thank you in advance! 🙂
They look great, good job.

Oh wow, they look great!
Compared to mine. The b4 looks fantastic.
Countertops are really pretty. I wanna paint mine but am scared they will chip and scratch, how have your mom and friend's countertop held up?
I did mine 6 years ago. Held up good. I used RustOleum countertop paint. I now have some chippy areas especially around the sink so I am going to sand everything, touch up the areas and then re-coat.
They look beautiful, you are so amazing at diy's.
Can this be done on bathroom cultured marble?
Do the products used need to be Food Safe?
Great video!!! TFS!
They. Look amazing. I want to do my tile floor
Beautiful job
That's absolutely gorgeous!!! Thanks so much! Great instruction. Any suggestions for tile???

Great job! I love it but will get someone to do mine. I'm too nervous to do it myself.
I was thinking of doing this to my way to outdated countertops. Can you tell me if you still have the same countertops and if so, have they held up after this past year and a half?
For $40 it looks good. It helped me decide to do something else.
New subscriber, hello from Alabama.... I might try this on my counter top... I'm always busy in my home too lol.... Hopefully I can pick up some great tips from your Channel..
what did you use on the back splash? all Looks good ! would love to know how it holds up, it should but you never know! scary!! thnx!
That is so neat! Great job, Shannon! ❤❤❤
Nice job. I'd be interested in an update to hear how it's holding up. Is there a reason you didn't take out the sink?
How have they held up?? I am SO wanting to do this to mine!!!!!
I will try this!
You are so talented!
Awesome..thank you so much for this wonderful idea...this will look gr8 in our r/v...!🚃🚙💜💕😘
Nice hope mine turn out this nice
That turned out amazing! I may have to give this a try! Thanks for sharing!
This turned out great! Do you have to reseal it ever or should it be good to go forever? We just painted our tub and shower and I'm ready to paint all the things!! 👍😂
That looks amazing great job!!!
This was truly amazing!!!!! We were thinking of getting new counter tops, but after seeing this, I will be trying you’re method!!! It really looks beautiful..
U r amazing. Fantastic job
You did a great job and I like that you painted the back splash too! 👍🏼
It looks really beautiful. Is there a way to make them shiny?
Great video! Thank you…this actually looks doable. How is it holding up now?
Fantastic! Great job.
Looks great. I noticed you did the back splash also. Can you tell us how much that cost ya.? Thxs...
Thank you so much for sharing they look amazing
Thank you so much
Hi I love them...I absolutely love the marble look anyway. I'm wanting to do something with my countertops...I have 5 different ones...and their Formica I believe...it's a Mobile home. Had it for 16 almost 17 years now and there Emerald green. I'm Soo tired of them. Might give that a try. Thanks for sharing. You. Have a blessed day.
So you used 3 acrylic MS colors: the wet look, arrow head and steel spray? Just wanted to be sure so I can buy the exact colors. Thanks so much.
I notice you painted over your backslash. I never thought to do that. Why did you do it, how did you do it and are you happy with it?♥️👍
