I painted my counters recently. I didn't use the kit however, but got similar results. Also, just to add...I used a turkey feather for the veining and acrylic paint that was diluted with water rather than the paint and spray technique. It made the veining look very realistic. Great job!!
I used a white primer that's mold and mildew resistant, acrylic paints and a turkey feather which you can get at craft stores, and a spray bottle with water to help thin out the streaks a bit to make them more realistic.
The press on faux tile is great for the camper since it is lighter weight than real tile. The entire look is nice. That camper looks very old and dark. So the countertop and tile really freshen it up and make it look more modern. Can’t wait to see your updates on the camper.
Great job on assimilating the natural veins of marble stones, when finished it actually looks just like a marble I work with often named white carrara.
I used to work as a decorative artist and did lots of faux marble . I used oil paint and feathers and a badger hair brush . It came out lovely . I used to do layers so it created depth. It helps if you study real marble to see how the veining looks . 😊
I live in NJ and my husband and I will be buying our first home soon! Your videos are awesome and very helpful! They make me excited for projects I plan to do in our first house.
Awesome for taking the chance on doing countertop paint kit... remember like Bob Ross said, there are only happy little accidents. Keep working at it, it will buff out.
Came out pretty 😊if it does start messing up ....amazon sell marble contact paper... get the brand DC Fix... it lasts and it’s cost effective....the quality is great... hope this helps 😀
Surfing You Tube for suggestions on counter top refurb and this is exactly what I was looking for! We just purchased a older camper on a seasonal lot, Going to use this method in the camper as practice for my 1987 pink counter tops in my home! Thanks for sharing, great video!
They make this really cool spray which comes out in sort of confetti like veins for faux marble epoxy countertops. It looks incredibly natural and it's much easier than painting things on with a brush.
Yours look fantastic!! I did mine with epoxy, from stone coat, they ship and have a ton,if videos!! Ive had them for years and they will,last forever!! I love your videos!!
I had decided against doing this, but I hadn’t thought about doing it in the camper! What a great idea. You definitely don’t want to put a heavy countertop in a camper because of weight.
An epoxy would help to make it last alot longer. Also another option for countertops is the stonecoatcountertop kit. It is awesome for renewing countertops
Please do update videos in 6 months, 1 year, etc and let us know how this stuff holds up over time!!!! I'm so tempted to do some projects like this is my own place but cant afford new things if I screw mine up so I'm scared to try!
I definitely admire your 'jump in & get 'er done' attitude. I've been wanting to do my counter tops. I'm not going to use a kit tho. It looks marvelous! Great job. tfs💞. Ya made me a believer so I have subscribed-from Ohio. I've watched your stainless steel makeover too.
Great job i just did some counter tops in a rental trailer last week with the rustoleum product and i used the poly acrylic crystal clear came out great and the tenant loved it
Em it looks AMAZING! Are you thinking about doing this to your home kitchen countertop after doing the camper counter top? I think you should consider it, it seriously looks amazing
Ah this video is so perfect timing! We've just bought our first home and the kitchen is blue melamine with a speckled grey (not nice) counter top. I was hoping to do a faux butcher block but this might work as well!
You mention things you’d like to try. I have tile floor in my kitchen with horrible grout. 8m told you can’t grout on grout so hoping you will come up with something. I wouldn’t mind staining the tile but then I still have the grout issue. Thanks! I love all remodels so far. 💕
saw this online blog post for diy ceramic-looking knobs and tried it the other day and it looks amazing! thought y'all might want to try this for the cabinet knobs.
Hi my awesome friend, thank you so much for sharing this awesome video. You’re doing an awesome job Painting everything everything is looking better every time I look at a video of yours
Oh... my... gosh Emelyne!! It looks amazing! You are really becoming a pro! It really looks like marble, I am so impressed! What a fun project for you both!
Couldn't click fast enough!!!So excited for this and all your content💕and heck ya I bindged watched all your past videos from day1 and your sooo talented,creative,fun to watch 💕
Mermaid ArtistQueen we’re using pine as our butcher block counter which is not very heavy! We’ve taken so much out of the motor home so the weight wouldn’t be an issue
Not sure how to ask this question, but what is the durability of the results? Is it scratch and stainless resistant. Will it need touch ups overtime? Callie
Our Little Nest A bar top would be so pretty, too. I ruined my bathroom lately with some hair dye and it needs a paint anyway. I will try this and let you know via Instagram how it turnes out!
OMG!! We almost have the exact same engagement ring ❤️ it’s beautiful. Also, you have great tips. My fiancé and I are in the process of buying a house and I have notified a lot of areas that needs updating. Thank you for your videos!
Wow! That looked amazing! Definitely scary and gave me a bit of anxiety to think of myself taking on a project like that! Lol 😂 but wow I loved it!! I am living for these videos!!! Great job!!! 😍😍😍😍🥰🥰🥰😘😍
Having done several of these kits I can say with all honestly sanding the counters first definitely helps the longevity of the product
Tracy McLaughlin Holmes definitely getting the surface roughed up helps a lot!

I wish I could see pics of your technique 😔
I'd love to see pics as well, what product did you use. I can't find this kit in London at the moment. Many thanks in advance
how did you do it because the kit is out of stock ?
Great idea, but where do you get a turkey feather?
I used a white primer that's mold and mildew resistant, acrylic paints and a turkey feather which you can get at craft stores, and a spray bottle with water to help thin out the streaks a bit to make them more realistic.

I'm going to do my kitchen and I purchased a small bag of feathers for this exact reason. Thanks for the confirmation.

Abigail S413 that’s amazing!! So exciting!
Awesome for taking the chance on doing countertop paint kit... remember like Bob Ross said, there are only happy little accidents. Keep working at it, it will buff out.
The way you did the line design looks better than any other I’ve seen! Good job!
Came out pretty 😊if it does start messing up ....amazon sell marble contact paper... get the brand DC Fix... it lasts and it’s cost effective....the quality is great... hope this helps 😀
Bxlatina35 I was thinking of doing that as well! It seems like it comes out really nice!
Bxlatina35 yeah its nice at first but over time the contract paper stains. Scratches
I used the contact paper on our rv countertops and its lasted us for 2 months so far of continuous use.
Mermaid ArtistQueen I have contact paper on my kitchen counter and no issues at all had it close to a year now.... dc fix is a good brand
Our Little Nest do it u won’t regret it and u can change it whenever u feel u want a new look . Saves a lot of money lol 😊

What is it called?
Wished I knew what it was called.
Yours look fantastic!! I did mine with epoxy, from stone coat, they ship and have a ton,if videos!! Ive had them for years and they will,last forever!! I love your videos!!
Thanks taylor I need something super durable !
Looks great, especially with that gorgeous backsplash tile!
Betsy H thank you! I can’t wait to install the tile!
Awesome! That mint color back splash looks fantastic
I’ve watched all the different presentations on how to do marble faux counters. This looks fairly easy I also like the look of iy
I just painted our counters last week! We bought the $20 rustoleum can that can be tinted at Lowe’s.
Kait how cool!!
OMG!!! TOO pretty -- especially with the mint backsplash!
Jessica thank youuu!!
I had decided against doing this, but I hadn’t thought about doing it in the camper! What a great idea. You definitely don’t want to put a heavy countertop in a camper because of weight.
Also, thanks for being the guinea pig!
You did a spectacular job! How beautiful! 👌
It turned out so well!! Love the color of the backsplash tiles with marble counter too! I can't wait to see more videos about ur camper! Stay healthy!
An epoxy would help to make it last alot longer. Also another option for countertops is the stonecoatcountertop kit. It is awesome for renewing countertops
You are very good at explaining steps.
munchiemunchie2010 thank you!
Wow! Can’t believe how good it looks!
Please do update videos in 6 months, 1 year, etc and let us know how this stuff holds up over time!!!! I'm so tempted to do some projects like this is my own place but cant afford new things if I screw mine up so I'm scared to try!
It will work great , but you have to sand it first, then use the epoxy . Otherwise it will peel.
Love the way your counter turned out! I was JUST talking to my fiancé about doing some DIY's on our kitchen while we're quarantined
I definitely admire your 'jump in & get 'er done' attitude. I've been wanting to do my counter tops. I'm not going to use a kit tho. It looks marvelous! Great job.

Mary Rose if we change our backsplash I definitely would! Right now I think it would be too much white with the tile and cabinets but I’d love to!!
Ah this video is so perfect timing! We've just bought our first home and the kitchen is blue melamine with a speckled grey (not nice) counter top. I was hoping to do a faux butcher block but this might work as well!
Katherine Richardson congratulations!! That is so exciting, this is perfect for it!!
How would you do faux butcher block? Just piecing wood together?
I’m loving this channel and all the diy! It’s so fun watching this side of you and stage in your life 🤍🍯
Greer Allison that means so so much!!! Thank you 💕🍯
I almost did that!!!! I ended up doing the Daich Spreadstone one and LOVE it!!!!💁🏼♀️ looks nice👏🏻
Heidi L I have to look into that one! I’m amazed at how real it looks!
Our Little Nest yes! This one I did has real stone!!! I like it a lot
Heidi, has it held up good after normal,use?
You mention things you’d like to try. I have tile floor in my kitchen with horrible grout. 8m told you can’t grout on grout so hoping you will come up with something. I wouldn’t mind staining the tile but then I still have the grout issue. Thanks! I love all remodels so far. 💕
Bleach pen. You can also find grout whiteners at Lowes and Home Depot. You Tube has many diy options too
Mable looks great.
saw this online blog post for diy ceramic-looking knobs and tried it the other day and it looks amazing! thought y'all might want to try this for the cabinet knobs.
Oooo! How did you do it?!
Love LOVE love this idea!
Wow! Awesome, great job, you're a natural 🏆
Ms. H. Thanks so much!💛
🤗😘 Having a binge watch of your videos, absolutely loving EVERYTHING!!!
Using the tip of a feather and twisting as you make your vein helps it look more natural😊
Hi my awesome friend, thank you so much for sharing this awesome video. You’re doing an awesome job Painting everything everything is looking better every time I look at a video of yours
I think the countertops look really nice! Good job!!
That looks great! It's going to look beautiful with that backsplash... Thanks for sharing.
Great job!!! I was thinking that you can probably go a little heavier with your paint on the base coats, that may help cover with fewer coats.
Great results! The backsplash color is also super beautiful but I do have to say I kinda like the old wall paper behind it too.
This is amazing!! Looks so real!!
Oh... my... gosh Emelyne!! It looks amazing! You are really becoming a pro! It really looks like marble, I am so impressed! What a fun project for you both!
Thanks so much!!
I love the counter tops I would absolutely put the epoxy over them and keep them so pretty ...
Looks nice!! I painted my counter for $40! One step done, with an appliance epoxy!
did you add veins? or just paint all white ?
I think you did a fantastic job!!! Looks pretty
Super cool video. This looks great. 👌
It turned out beautifully!
What a difference... Amazing! tfs take care God Bless 💖💖
Lola Rose God bless💛💛
Looks super professional 👍
It turned out so well! Love it!!
♥️♥️♥️love the backsplash
Woman...what sorcery is this!!!!! Brilliant
Couldn't click fast enough!!!So excited for this and all your content💕and heck ya I bindged watched all your past videos from day1 and your sooo talented,creative,fun to watch 💕
Maria Casella thank you SO much!! Sweetest comment ever!💕
This is perfect for a motor home!! If you travel with a motorhome the butcherblock will be too heavy. Unless you make a faux butcher block.
Mermaid ArtistQueen we’re using pine as our butcher block counter which is not very heavy! We’ve taken so much out of the motor home so the weight wouldn’t be an issue
You did really good! It looks great!
Beautiful this simple and easy great job!
I love your videos so much! My boyfriend and I want to buy an old camper too and your videos are sooo inspiring ! Thank u 💕
Alexela aww!! It’s such a fun project! I feel like everyone needs a camper to remodel 😂
Our Little Nest it looks like so much fun and I feel like it’s gonna be so rewarding 🤗
It came out so good!
Laggard has a topcoat/finish coat with a nice sheen. Not sure how long it would take to dry.
Your camper is going to be adorable by summer!! Any planned trips? 🌎💗
BonbonsAndBooks ❤︎ nothing official yet but we have soo many places on our list to visit! 😍
Our Little Nest I bet 😃
Covid19: "maybe next summer"
People:"Dho"
Don’t know about y’all, but I’m hoping for that backsplash video to come out. 😍
Well done, looks amazing, so real..... you also did put effort in it. I'm so lazy that would probably buy the marble adhesive paper
That looks fantastic! Great job
Wow everything turned out beautiful xxx thanks for sharing... sending blessings and love
Wish we got counter top paint in the uk 😔great job you done!
This looks like it turned out great! Thanks for sharing this project
Hello from the UK ☺️ I love all your content, very different, interesting and useful!
LOVE your ring !
Thank you!!
Beautiful and inspiring! Your ring is gorgeous too, where is it from?
So very beautiful!
That looks beautiful!
It looks so good!!
Does this paint withstand hot temperatures? Like a hot man or tray, or does it need protection?
😂
Was thinking “ ohhh your the video with the stainless steal paint” lol 👌👍❤️ ty tho the best
I think it looks good!...I wouldn't of known it isn't real marble ✨great job 👍
That looks soooo great!!!
Great video and tips. Can I use the same kit on laminate countertop?
Not sure how to ask this question, but what is the durability of the results? Is it scratch and stainless resistant. Will it need touch ups overtime?
Callie
I would have just used marble contact/vinyl paper bc I don't have the patience. But the result of this looks really nice too.
I would love to do that to my bathroom countertop! 😍 Looks stunning!
That’s what I was thinking! Or a bar top, there’s so many possibilities with this stuff! I may marble my whole house😂
Our Little Nest A bar top would be so pretty, too. I ruined my bathroom lately with some hair dye and it needs a paint anyway. I will try this and let you know via Instagram how it turnes out!
Looks great !!!♥️♥️♥️
Just used scotch green tape. Worked as good as frog tape and half the price.
This looks amazing !
You did fantastic job .. I will do mine too soon .. thank you for sharing ..
looks very nice!
I think it looks really cool Em!
Look beautiful, thank you for sharing!!!

I think it looks great!
I am so nervous to try this but I really want to change my kitchen counter top. How long do you have to wait before you can wipe it down
Super cute! Love this idea. Thanks! Also, where is the mr. right mug from? 😍
We got them as a wedding gift but I’ve seen them on amazon before! Mine says “mrs. Always right” haha😂
Beautiful!
I was a bit disappointed u didn't use the white highlight, but it still turned out looking great.
Where did you get your coffee sign on the counter?
You’re doing such a great job...
It looks real! Id love to see it with apoxy over it!
