    Contact paper has so many great uses. But remember: Always use a chopping board and trivets (contact paper cuts, nicks and scorches/melts very easily on work surfaces) and use a sealant (caulk or grout) around the sink to stop moisture lifting the paper. Caution around hot areas like ovens or hob as heat can lift the edges too.

    I’m so happy to see you utilizing your butler’s pantry for your everyday dishes. It not only looks great on display, but is so functional and opens up precious space in your small kitchen for cooking items/tools.

    I noticed your dry herbs are above your stove on the wall. Herbs should be kept in a dry cool area for maximum shelf life. Above the stove is hot and can have moisture ( boiling water for pasta)

    One downside to contact paper is how delicate you'll need to be with hot pots and pans, perhaps merely dishwasher warm. You could melt or burn it fairly easily.

    You could probably caulk the edges of the contact paper around the sink, you can peel caulk off usually and it might help prevent water getting in.

    I moved into my new-to-me condo a year and a half ago...My kitchen countertops are black granite. The kitchen is back and white, originally done about 10 years ago but ahead of its time then. Great oak cupboards, lovely white subway tile backsplash, nice tile flooring, stainless steel appliances, stainless steel sink with disposal and hot and cold water filter. I have nice under counter lighting too. It has a small but doable pantry. My kitchen is small but it works and I cook all three meals from scratch every day!! I added a buffet in the dining room and a 1970's vintage, "statement piece" wood credenza nearby for extra pots and pans. I don't care for a lot of stuff sitting out or open shelving (even though it is currently "in-style.")

      Study Hard Travel Smart I cook every day for all three meals and I’m a messy cook, they haven’t stained, peeled, or broken in the last 8 months of cooking on them. I even roll out dough on them as well and they look great and protect the countertop underneath. Just don’t set hot pans on it. If you bake something put a hot pad on the counter first and then the pan and it is just fine (like most countertop care rules). It’s 100% renter friendly and you can get the contact paper from Walmart for $7

    My countertops are faux wood laminate, underneath. ☺️ I did the countertops in marble contact paper last year and I love it!! It has lasted and is such easy upkeep. You’re gonna love it!! 😃💖 I even did the back of my cupboard shelves with the marble contact paper. It gives such a high end cohesive look. 😍

    It looks good when you first do it, but be SO careful with water and moisture in general on your counters! I've done the contact paper thing before (burnt orange laminate counters yikes) and it just didn't hold up to actually cooking and using the space. Good luck man, I hope it works better for you.

      I redid some u.g.l.y purple laminate with the marble contact paper - also clear coated it with polyurethane to try to improve durability. It didn't. It scratches through super easy. Turmeric leaves yellow spots that don't come off with cleaner (accidently spilt some) and newspapers/food labels will transfer print to the surface if they get wet and are there for just a few minutes.

    Our apartment counter tops are laminate as well. Dark gray with random splatters of white and dark blues. We don't have a window in there either so it makes it feel so dark and cramped. I would absolutely change it if we could (thankfully we move out next month!).

      True, I had to laugh at the question of the video because I don't even have ANY counter space, my kitchen is literally a sink with an cabinet underneath next to a stove. When I need to cut something I put my cutting board on top of the sink or do it on the living room table. I don't even have room for an oven because the washing machine had to go under my stove. Then there is a fridge and a little shelf next to it... I still click on videos like this in hopes of finding advice to optimize my space but am mostly disappointed

    When we moved in, our countertops were these hideous blueish grey cloud looking laminate countertops. Yes, they looked like they had clouds on them. We bought new ones at Home Depot and they look like granite but are actually composite. Ten times easier to clean and maintain but still pretty.

I consolidate my mason jars when I can and the ones we aren’t using in the pantry we use to drink out of or for leftovers! ❤️

    I love how you say that you have a bigger kitchen but less storage. I have a kitchen/living room combo and the kitchen is just one wall that includes the stove and fridge and maybe a foot of counter space. What I wouldn't give for a kitchen your size. Granted, it is an apartment but I'd still love to have your kitchen.

    That contact paper is amazing stuff, I've covered an outside table top, my office table mat that was a scrap piece from our kitchen floor, my bed side table. So good. I brought a plastic table cover a faux wood style and covered my horrible blue/green dining room table with it. Now it looks like a farmhouse table, and it is protected at the same time. Our kitchen counters are the wood ones from Ikea. They are really cheap and easily replaceable if they get damaged, which they don't coz it's Ikea. Awesome tips too .Scout is so sweet.x

    We bought our house 3 years ago after 10 years of renting houses with various awful kitchens that were generally short of counter space (I owned my own home for 10 years prior and started over again post divorce). My new kitchen has bench space for miles and it’s natural stone (1990’s granite in brown and black tones). I do love having so much bench space, but I do dream of counters in a color that better suits the updates we are doing in our house. Our whole house was decorated in 1990’s cream with gold trims and we are slowly updating things a room or two at a time. The kitchen is open to the living space which has been freshly painted and is having new window coverings installed. We are going to put in new cabinet doors, backsplash tiles and reconfigure some cabinets into more practical drawer storage. One day when I don’t have more important things to budget for, the countertops may get an update!
