I am so excited to introduce our Sponsor for this week’s PARTY…

Giani Granite.

 

 

I can’t say enough good things about their counter-tops paint.

I had so much fun giving my very own green and sad counter-tops a makeover.

 

This is how they look now…

 

Let’s take another look.

 

Before

 

…and after.

 

 

 

Can you believe it?

 

 

The process was easy to do and SUPER clean.

You don’t need to sand your counter-tops.

{ Thank YOU! }

All you have to do is clean them, prime them,  paint them { using a sponge } and finish them with a clear Top Coat.

Before you know you’ll be done… the hardest part for me was to wait between coats.

 

How do you do it?

Visit  Giani Granite and watch their wonderful Video TUTORIAL.

Just click here to be amazed by how easy the steps are!

 

 I was super excited when Giani Granite kindly offered to giveaway 

one  full kit to a lucky winner!

 

Click HERE  to see Giani Granite’s photo gallery

and have fun exploring the many options you have for your own counter-tops.

Here are some of my favorites…

 

 The standard GIANITM top created with Sicilan SandTM

{ This is the kit I used on my counter-tops }

 

 The standard GIANITM top created with Bombay BlackTM

 

 The standard GIANITM top  created with Chocolate BrownTM

 

All I have left to say is that this product is AMAZING!

I am shocked of the results and the quality of  Giani Granite counter-top paints.

I wish I could buy the primer and the clear top coat by gallons ;)

 

OK! I am done with the talking…

 

………………………………………………………..

 

And the Winner is…

Belindasays:

I love the Sicilian Sand. 

My counter tops are about 45 years old and really, really, really could use a facelift!!
