What happens when you have some drips from the paint? I didnt see any painters tape. What kind of paint? I very rarely paint. It is gloss? Matte? When you were doing the countertops did you wait for the paint to dry?
@@christinearianna2424 If any drips I wipe it up right away with a damp towel. I used matte on the apple barrel paints and semi gloss for the rest of the paints.
Well, I did it! And it looks so good!! Funny enough, it looks like marbel!! (I'm not mad about it, I love it)! Going to do my cabinets next! Thank you for the inspiration and for posting your video!❤❤❤
Love it! Good Job. I get discouraged watching "money people" remodels knowing I will never have the resources to make major renovations. You've encourage me to get busy and update our home, built in 1938. (small & old)
Agreed the bag trick is a good idea but unfortunately the bag just breaks down from the paint and you end up with small bag Parts in your paint. At least the bag that I used broke down. What a pain in the butt that was!
I wish I could feel the same joy as your mom did when she put on that first knob on the cupboard. You are a very good daughter and your mama seems cheerful and loving. Makes my heart warm.
What a SWEET, exceptional daughter you are! The kitchen looks amazing, the owner will probably be so grateful for all your hard work if your mom ever moves. 💙
When she started sponging the countertops I was like, oh no.. And then I saw the finished product and I was like WTF. Now I want to do this to all my counters!
Katherine MM she did an excellent job. I did my countertops the same way. I used gold, tan, black and white color scheme. The possibilities are endless. I went to Lowes and got free swatch samples of lamented countertops I liked as a blueprint to follow. Good luck with your project. 👍🏾✌🏾
I feel like crying watching the both of you work as hard as you did...I was once young and did this type of painting ...What a great job and a huge difference. It's too bad your mom's landlord didn't have it in him or herself to pay you for your time and equity. You have increased the property value and your landlord should compensate you for this.
I'm so impressed more especially that you did it for your mom. Well done. My mom passed away 12 years ago I still miss her dearly seeing this video was emotional for me. But really well done for being there for your mother
My Mom and I were so close and did everything together. This is the best video I have seen. I know you treasure every day with each other. The kitchen is just great....perfect job.
I had did this year's ago...I was a chicken so I covered my counter with a clear contact paper and painted that lasted for at least 2 years that's when I took it off! Your mom looks great the kitchen looks sooooo goooood
I love how you did such a budget friendly make over. In these trying times you made a beautiful NEW kitchen for your Mom with just minimal cost & a whole lot of love. There are a lot of people that need to see more of these budget friendly makeovers. Thank you for taking the time to video your work!
Thank you so much for posting this video. Me and my husband just bought a 1972 home and we were on budget remodeling the kitchen. We didn’t want to replace the cabinets but we wanted a different color. Thank you so much for posting this.
Beautiful job my daughter has just done this for me !i went for white with black spray painted handles ,light grey dark grey and black wood effect flooring and it is also in a static caravan.Now I have caught the bug and have done both bedrooms and my living room now working on shower room and en-suite and I am enjoying doing it so much thank you for all you have shown us I bet your mum is as happy as me ,
I did the same technique to my countertops too, and I am just thrilled with it! I used a gray primer first, then dabbed on dark grey, a light grey, black, white, and added veins of rose gold (very lightly), and it really turned out better than I could have imagined. I used the Apple Barrel acrylic paint from Walmart (in the craft section) and they are so cheap; I think they cost around 50 cents a bottle. I only needed one bottle of each color, even though I bought 2 of each! I sealed it with the same product you used, and it has held up perfectly. The only thing I did differently than you is I used a plastic bag instead of a sponge or paper towel. I cut the bag into 4 sections so it was easier to work with & keep control! It turned out so good that my neighbor & I did her counters and used my left over paint. Anyway, you did s fantastic job, as always!! I’m sure your mom loves her new kitchen!! 💖
I am so happy for your mom! And proud of you for helping her get a new look in her kitchen. That means a lot to a mom. And it turned out to be really AWESOME!!!! What a difference! God bless! 👏👏👏
Amazing job. Looks great. If you paint the dark brown table with the stools black it will complete the look of the kitchen. Very inspiring video. What a change with just paint.
My husband and I just bought an old 1932 mill house, so I was, already, going to do the faux granite countertops, but I'm loving the bag in the paint tray trick. Everything came out looking so professional. I love it all, Ladies. Do the thang!!!💝💖😍
Great job. I would have used an etching primer under your Kilz base coat (I recommend XIM) after sanding off the counters with a 220 grit sandpaper first. This creates both a chemical and mechanical bond for you paint. Without those 2 basic steps your countertop paint will eventually peel off. BTW you cannot use epoxy on any counter with an attached backsplash. It will run off the backsplash area and pool on the deck at the back. Another area that could have been addressed would have been that hideous crack in the counter where it had been mitered together. This should have had a coat of bondo applied ahead of time to give you a flawless surface to start with before starting your paint applications. All in all the outcome (even with the missed steps and shortcuts) REALLY improved the kitchen. I especially liked the paint colors you chose for your countertops. They really made the kitchen come together. Your application process was spot on. Well done.
I don't know alot about remodeling/updating rooms. At first I thought your remarks were rude. But by the end I thought your remarks were meant to be helpful. Good advice to check out!
@@janetmeyer885 I definitely wasn't meaning to be rude, that isn't in my heart Ive been lucky a few people have been kind and given me tips and tricks over the years that have saved me so much time money and effort i was trying to pass along that blessing
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ You are such a sweet daughter for helping your Mom. Your DIY videos blow me away!! The final product is so beautiful 😍 I can’t get over the transformation I had to watch the ending a few times. great job ladies!! I’m already looking forward to the next DIY video.👍
Great video, thank you. I live in one of my dads houses and he is about to come home from Iraq and I’m going to do this to my kitchen counter tops and surprise him. ❤️
I hope she not only gets her deposit back but she gets something knocked off her rent or some kind of compensation because y’all definitely raised the rent for the next tenant! I want to repaint my mobile home and it’s brand new!
I so badly want to take a brand new mobile home and do it exactly how I want. Like really really make it my own. My parents have a giant modular on a basement, it’s 21 yrs old now, and I hate that they refuse to redo anything. Like it needs it, I’d get rid of her popcorn ceiling, paint or restrain her real wood cabinets, take the island, unmount it and put it on rolling wheels to open her kitchen up, and even though there’s textured wallpaper as well as textured drywall I wanna go crazy with paint and accent some walls and her fireplace.
Honestly the only thing I’d suggest, on the cabinets, if you get some long hard wear, like long handles, it will draw the eyes upwards and gives more height. I love this too cute!
Girl this looks amazing!!!! You are so talented with the faux granite!! I would be a nervous wreck thinking I would ruin my countertop!!! But you are just the sweetest thing and I just love watching you and your mama doing fun house stuff together!!!!
I wasn't sure about those countertops as you were layering the paint, especially when you got to the white paint but oh my goodness are those some beautiful countertops!!! I'm trying this!!!
So, thank you for this!! I never knew you could paint counter tops like that, and it’s a game changer for us! We also rent a mobile home, and it’s seriously out dated. We are painting the entire kitchen and living room white and now that I know we can paint the countertops to give it a spruced up look, I’m al for it!! We also want to DIY our small kitchen table to give it the farmhouse look as well. I never knew about the final clear gloss that would seal the paint, so now we can finally get it all done!! Thank you!!
Yes in description it says apple bottom paint and the 3 colors she used 4 if count 1sf color which was the tan mixed with white for a beige color ...READ description all there : ) I think painting s kitchen table white ( a chalk paint white ) then going over with black and brown lines ..*( distressed) looks really good esp when you clear coat it! Tons of you tube videos on doing this type if farmhouse distressing
Great job! I just found your channel tonight and I love the makeover. Those counters look great. I will be checking out your future makeovers. So much talent 👏. Can you do a rental small bathroom makeover? I need some ideas.
Wow. ABSOLUTELY beautiful. When we buy a home, we will definitely use alot of your techniques and ideas. I love it! You should start a diy small business. 💙
I was so wanting to do the counter tops like this and paint my kitchen cabinets but afraid to. I also rent but everything is old and just so bad. After watching this I'm going to go for it. This turned out great and just very inspiring. Thanks for the inspiration.
Get approval first, cause in some states they can keep your deposit if they want to, no matter how nice you painted, etc... Read your lease carefully, ok? I have worked in the business and sometimes owners or rental companies are tough.
I did my counter tops like this a couple of years ago in browns and black using crumpled up plastic shopping bags. It looks so much better than the white counter that I had. I put several layers of polyurethane on it also. The con side to it is that it will chip if something drops on it too hard (easy to touch up so don't throw the left over paint away) and where I have a cutting board sitting all the time, the color is darker because it does not get exposed to the same amount of light like the rest of the counter top. With all of that said, it is definitely a more budget friendly choice. I would do it again. Your mom's kitchen looks great!
I really appreciate the details given for painting counter faux marble, mixing white and light grays. You sound so encouraging! I feel I could do this make-over. Thank You!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS! You are extremely talented! Infact, I have jotted down notes, colors, screen shots, as well as saved your video. I will be redoing my kitchen soon and wanted to do it as budget friendly as possible. Thanks for sharing and girlie..you've got the touch! Amazing job!
I would really suggest running over the countertops with some light sandpaper before priming. I painted mine 2 years ago and because I didn't sand, they have started peeling.
I've never seen this counter renovation and may have to try it on our ancient linoleum counter top! Its current toy a funky green color which used to have the larger gold speckle and it's all worn off, its THAT old!
I noticed that you have a old kitchen aide dishwasher. On the side of those dishwashers there's a metal strip on the door..one on each side. Take the screws out remove the straps. Colored panel should come off. Check on the backside of white panel and behind to see if more panels in different colors are there. If not you can spray paint it.
Oh wow. At first I was like, “What is she doing to the counter?” but it really turned out great. Awesome job! I’d be scared to do that but someday I might try it. Thanks for sharing!
I absolutely love this make over, it is one of my favorites yet. You both have a excellent talent on redecorating and most importantly on a budget. I have redone most of my kitchen but the counter tops, it is expensive to get them done. I am going to most definitely do this. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration. Your channel has become one of my favorites. Your family is so sweet. Amaiya and Kaden are so adorable.❤️❤️
I moved into my dads house to help and its so outdated. Went to RUclips for help and your video popped out. I subscribed and im getting awesome ideas from you just thank you
@Kristy M so true. Especially the touches like caulking and painting the ends of the countertops. 1st time here, new sub. I don't know how mom functions with so few and small cabinets so at least the space looks great. And I will need to go back and hit pause for the reveal pics. Great job.
You did such a great job..I am fixing to do some remodeling to my trailer. This video gave me some ideas and got pumped to do mine. Thank you for showing a budget friendly way to improve on what you have. Yall are my kinda gurls..
I painted mine a couple years ago to look like granite. It turn out beautifully and has held up perfectly! I don’t baby it; in fact, I treat it like I always have. No chips, no worn spots, etc. For $69 approximately, I got beautiful new counters that I love!
@@racemom777 I used the acrylic paints that come in 2oz bottles (Apple Barrel is the brand), the primer I used is made by Zinzer I think it’s called, and then the Polycrylic by Minwax. All of those were purchased at Walmart, and cost around $60. But I had lots left over, which I guess depends on how large of an area you have to cover. I just used the plastic grocery bags to dab the colors on; I cut the bag into 4 sections because trying to use the entire bag wadded up was too much to use & I had a hard time controlling it, if that makes sense! I did better with a smaller piece. I applied the protective coat of Polycrylic with a brush, but some people use a roller. Those little bottles of acrylic paint are super cheap at Walmart, I think they are like 33 cents or something. Also, I put 2 coats of the Polycrylic on and tried to keep my cat down so so he didn’t leave his paw prints on it!! Good luck!! You’ll love it, and you’ll be so glad you did it. Let me know if you have anymore questions!
@@angeli888 I’m sorry, I don’t think I can post pictures here, but the video I watched is “How to paint countertops - looks like slate - $65 DIY budget friendly...”, and the channel is “Lisa Capen Quilts”. I did exactly what she did, except I used a gray primer and I used a couple different shades of gray, black, white, and a bit of gold for the “veins”. I didn’t use the stuff she used that she had to sand off! I can’t remember what it’s called....but I skipped that part. And instead of paper towels to blot with, I used a plastic grocery bag, like her, but I cut mine into 4 parts because using the whole bag was too much to handle & I had better control with a smaller piece. Also, I applied the Polycrylic with a brush instead of a roller. It’s been over 2 years now, and they are holding up perfectly!! Let me know if you have any questions!! Good luck!!
I love it but I'm really concerned that you didn't list what finish the type of paint is cause that matters and didn't seem to prep things much. If you don't have the right finish you can get major chipping especially if you didn't sand and prime correctly. Like flat should only be used on ceilings cause it's so easy to scuff and wiping doesn't clean it like it does with a semi or high gloss also high gloss should only be used on trim for so many reasons like it's the toughest for high traffic areas that easily get dirty or bumped and scratched from say a vacuum. IDK I could go on and on from what I learned from my mistakes which caused me more time,money, and etc from doing wrong (which were many mistakes! haha) so my advice for others please look up how to paint especially different surfaces like that really cheap fake wood stuff cause that easily goes wrong and using the wrong finish can make stuff look tacky.
@@melissahernandez4329 it all depends on what kind you have honestly and what shape they are in. Like I can't tell you that without seeing it and looking it up if it's that mdf or whatever you call it, laminate, and if it's all damaged from water you might have to replace it all. It all depends google it
Hi, Wow! What a difference. It came out wicked good. You wouldn’t know it’s the same. Your mom must love it. You do amazing work on your channel. You go girl!! Xo 😘
Wow! What a beautiful makeover on a budget. Just goes to show, you really don’t need to have a pile of money to make a beautiful home. Such an inspiration. Thank you for sharing!

Thank you for watching.
How long did you let the primer with paint set before you started the top layers? I'm going to do it
What happens when you have some drips from the paint? I didnt see any painters tape. What kind of paint? I very rarely paint. It is gloss? Matte?
When you were doing the countertops did you wait for the paint to dry?

Agree
I love it .. this is first comment I ever did so sorry if it's all wrong but I love it ..
I agree great ideas
I agree
It looks fantastic!
The bag trick on the paint tray is genius
Agreed,,,that was a very great idea, thank you.
Yes its the easiest cleanup but make sure you use white lol the color on tinted bags will actually come off into the paint 😅 ive learned the hard way.
@@karrielynn thank you..
Agreed the bag trick is a good idea but unfortunately the bag just breaks down from the paint and you end up with small bag Parts in your paint. At least the bag that I used broke down. What a pain in the butt that was!
I thought so also!!!
I wish I could feel the same joy as your mom did when she put on that first knob on the cupboard. You are a very good daughter and your mama seems cheerful and loving. Makes my heart warm.
Love that you do vids for ppl that cant afford a 20k Reno. Looks good.
What a SWEET, exceptional daughter you are! The kitchen looks amazing, the owner will probably be so grateful for all your hard work if your mom ever moves. 💙
When she started sponging the countertops I was like, oh no..
And then I saw the finished product and I was like WTF.
Now I want to do this to all my counters!
Katherine MM she did an excellent job. I did my countertops the same way. I used gold, tan, black and white color scheme. The possibilities are endless. I went to Lowes and got free swatch samples of lamented countertops I liked as a blueprint to follow. Good luck with your project. 👍🏾✌🏾
Yes me too! I thought omg stop stop now but at the end it was amazing!
I know someone who did this to their bathroom floor with different shades of brown. Ugh! Made the floor look dirty!

I was like oh no as well
I feel like crying watching the both of you work as hard as you did...I was once young and did this type of painting
...What a great job and a huge difference. It's too bad your mom's landlord didn't have it in him or herself to pay you for your time and equity. You have increased the property value and your landlord should compensate you for this.

With all of that said, it is definitely a more budget friendly choice. I would do it again. Your mom's kitchen looks great!
Absolutely amazing, the countertops are gorgeous
Love your country kitchen. I am a country girl at heart ❤️.

I really appreciate the details given for painting counter faux marble, mixing white and light grays. You sound so encouraging! I feel I could do this make-over. Thank You!
WOWWWWWW 😍 that looks so good! What a huge difference. Girl you’re talented!!
I love how your moms house is decorated!
I ABSOLUTELY LOVED THIS! You are extremely talented! Infact, I have jotted down notes, colors, screen shots, as well as saved your video. I will be redoing my kitchen soon and wanted to do it as budget friendly as possible. Thanks for sharing and girlie..you've got the touch! Amazing job!
Thank you so much 💕 i appreciate you watching!
Wow! Paint can transform anything! Great job!
What a nice thing to do for your mom. Amazing job
Perfect timing. We’re redoing our mobile home kitchen!!! TFS!!!
I would really suggest running over the countertops with some light sandpaper before priming. I painted mine 2 years ago and because I didn't sand, they have started peeling.
@@christyinthecarolinas Thanks for your Tip. Kim
I've never seen this counter renovation and may have to try it on our ancient linoleum counter top! Its current toy a funky green color which used to have the larger gold speckle and it's all worn off, its THAT old!
I noticed that you have a old kitchen aide dishwasher. On the side of those dishwashers there's a metal strip on the door..one on each side. Take the screws out remove the straps. Colored panel should come off. Check on the backside of white panel and behind to see if more panels in different colors are there.
If not you can spray paint it.
I am going to do that countertop trick in my husbands mancave. It looks awesome.
Looks Great 👍 I am sure your mom is very grateful 💖 😊
OMG this was amazing work!!! The counters turned out soooo great! Beautiful makeover!!🤩👍🏿
Oh wow. At first I was like, “What is she doing to the counter?” but it really turned out great. Awesome job! I’d be scared to do that but someday I might try it. Thanks for sharing!
Lol me too i was like wth is she doing but then i was like wow she did a good job!!!
omg me too i Was like oh no this is a mistake and then i was shocked lol
Please don't!!!!
@@DianaCarolinaGirl22 Why?
Beautiful work you’re done for your mom. Beautiful
Beautiful job. Painting kitchen cabinets is an intimidating project.
I absolutely love this make over, it is one of my favorites yet. You both have a excellent talent on redecorating and most importantly on a budget. I have redone most of my kitchen but the counter tops, it is expensive to get them done. I am going to most definitely do this. Thank you for the wonderful inspiration. Your channel has become one of my favorites. Your family is so sweet. Amaiya and Kaden are so adorable.❤️❤️
I moved into my dads house to help and its so outdated. Went to RUclips for help and your video popped out. I subscribed and im getting awesome ideas from you just thank you
Wow! That doesn’t even look like the same kitchen!
@Kristy M so true. Especially the touches like caulking and painting the ends of the countertops. 1st time here, new sub. I don't know how mom functions with so few and small cabinets so at least the space looks great. And I will need to go back and hit pause for the reveal pics. Great job.
I think you all do a great job on your mom's kitchen it is very beautiful
The stone grey rlly makes the white pop. Well done ladies!!
You did such a great job..I am fixing to do some remodeling to my trailer. This video gave me some ideas and got pumped to do mine. Thank you for showing a budget friendly way to improve on what you have. Yall are my kinda gurls..
Now this turned out beautiful, don't show the landlord he might raise the rent LOL.
😂😂 seriously, right?! Looks that good!
Omg I love it
I have paid my mobile home off and I am dieting to paint my cabinets and countertop. Just scared !! Lol
Dieing not dieting lol

Your a Blessing to your Mom proud of you it turned out beautiful amazing what a fix up can do
That's a big difference. It looks great.
I was skeptical about the painted countertops I've never seen that before but it looked nice... How does it hold up to daily use?
I painted mine a couple years ago to look like granite. It turn out beautifully and has held up perfectly! I don’t baby it; in fact, I treat it like I always have. No chips, no worn spots, etc. For $69 approximately, I got beautiful new counters that I love!
@@wendymathews1030 did u use special products?
@@racemom777 I used the acrylic paints that come in 2oz bottles (Apple Barrel is the brand), the primer I used is made by Zinzer I think it’s called, and then the Polycrylic by Minwax. All of those were purchased at Walmart, and cost around $60. But I had lots left over, which I guess depends on how large of an area you have to cover. I just used the plastic grocery bags to dab the colors on; I cut the bag into 4 sections because trying to use the entire bag wadded up was too much to use & I had a hard time controlling it, if that makes sense! I did better with a smaller piece. I applied the protective coat of Polycrylic with a brush, but some people use a roller. Those little bottles of acrylic paint are super cheap at Walmart, I think they are like 33 cents or something. Also, I put 2 coats of the Polycrylic on and tried to keep my cat down so so he didn’t leave his paw prints on it!! Good luck!! You’ll love it, and you’ll be so glad you did it. Let me know if you have anymore questions!
@@wendymathews1030 ....can you post pictures of your project? i love to see project pictures which makes me feel that maybe I can do that!
@@angeli888 I’m sorry, I don’t think I can post pictures here, but the video I watched is “How to paint countertops - looks like slate - $65 DIY budget friendly...”, and the channel is “Lisa Capen Quilts”. I did exactly what she did, except I used a gray primer and I used a couple different shades of gray, black, white, and a bit of gold for the “veins”. I didn’t use the stuff she used that she had to sand off! I can’t remember what it’s called....but I skipped that part. And instead of paper towels to blot with, I used a plastic grocery bag, like her, but I cut mine into 4 parts because using the whole bag was too much to handle & I had better control with a smaller piece. Also, I applied the Polycrylic with a brush instead of a roller. It’s been over 2 years now, and they are holding up perfectly!! Let me know if you have any questions!! Good luck!!
Let’s be real... the true star of the show is the adorable pitbull.
As a “mom” to 2 pit bulls- I concur!! 💕🐾
I love it but I'm really concerned that you didn't list what finish the type of paint is cause that matters and didn't seem to prep things much.
If you don't have the right finish you can get major chipping especially if you didn't sand and prime correctly. Like flat should only be used on ceilings cause it's so easy to scuff and wiping doesn't clean it like it does with a semi or high gloss also high gloss should only be used on trim for so many reasons like it's the toughest for high traffic areas that easily get dirty or bumped and scratched from say a vacuum.
IDK I could go on and on from what I learned from my mistakes which caused me more time,money, and etc from doing wrong (which were many mistakes! haha) so my advice for others please look up how to paint especially different surfaces like that really cheap fake wood stuff cause that easily goes wrong and using the wrong finish can make stuff look tacky.
Or you could relax and enjoy the video. 🤗
@@sherylmcneill7811 She's speaking truth
Ok so how should we prime the cheap fake wood countertops and cabinets? What kind of paint can we use?
@@melissahernandez4329 it all depends on what kind you have honestly and what shape they are in.
Like I can't tell you that without seeing it and looking it up if it's that mdf or whatever you call it, laminate, and if it's all damaged from water you might have to replace it all. It all depends google it
Aww. So sweet, I am sure Mom loves her new kitchen!
Hi, Wow! What a difference. It came out wicked good. You wouldn’t know it’s the same. Your mom must love it. You do amazing work on your channel. You go girl!! Xo 😘
