FINISHED!

Well, we are finally finished, and it is great!  Before I reveal our finished product I thought I would give everyone our thoughts on the process.  Would we do it again?  ABSOLUTELY!  Would we do things a little different?  Probably.  If we did this again we would we would probably sponge on the colors a little differently.  We would calm it down a little more, but that is what we like about this kit you can make it your own.  The sponge process is time consuming.  Our kitchen is 34 square feet counter surface, and it took us 3 1/2 hours.  The primer and top coats each took 30 minutes.  So for a total of about 5 hours we have a great new counter top surface.

Here is our reveal.  The only thing we have left to do is to re-caulk the tile where they tile and countertop meet.  We now have to wait 72 hours to lightly use our counter tops and 14 days for full use.  The next project for the Rice house is a fence.  Stay tuned for more DIY goodness!

It is also really difficult to see in the pictures, but the top coat is SUPER glossy, and I LOVE it!

Here it is!  Also at the end I have pasted the link to look into your own Giani kit to fix your countertops!
