Christmas Renovation ~

Hello my friends ~ I have missed you so ~

My computer went on the fritz and then Mr. V. decided he wanted to do a countertop restoration ~ sigh ~ at Christmas time?

I did not like my old counter tops.  They were pressed board wooden look ~ and with an old house, they were old ~

Mr. Vintage heard about the product Rustoleum countertop restoration.  He decided we needed to try it ;-)

We sanded down the countertops ~

If you decide to do this, PLEASE remember to tape and cover your cupboards.  This stuff is really messy ~

You paint the cupboard with the base coat and while it is still wet one person sprays the adhesive and the other uses a little spreader to spread the paint chips.  The counter is very rough at this point ~ then you sand them down and apply your top coat ~

I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my countertops now ~ just beautiful and the best part is ....

While the "paint was drying", we went to an estate sale and just LOOK what Mr. Vintage picked up for me ~

A beautiful vintage dough board.  Ofcourse, it didn't look like this when we bought it, but Mr. Vintage worked his magic and oiled it with mineral oil.  It has such a beautiful patina ~

It goes perfect with my HUGE vintage rolling pin. 

Now I'm off to make some bread ~ yummmmmm

What are you doing today?

Are you ready for Christmas?

After the counter restoration ~ I am ready for Christmas ~ ahhhhh ~ time to relax

((((Hugs))))
