I am so excited to share some amazing DIY Countertop Ideas with you today! They are so genius and creative and I hope you love them as much as I do.
I am an avid DIY’er because I like to have nice things but I don’t want to pay big prices. Sometimes this is out of necessity! We are in year 7 of paying for college for my two kids and I don’t have a ton of extra money laying around for home updates.
So I DIY. When I created my built-ins in my basement office/den space I took 1×8’s, used my Kreg Jig and screwed them together, and ta-da, a countertop was made! I thought that was pretty smart but that doesn’t compare to what I have to share with you today!
DIY Countertop Ideas
My friend Carrie at Lovely Etc. really wanted a new look to her countertops but replacing them wasn't an option so she went to paint. These outdated laminate countertops now look like marble and are simply gorgeous!
Morgan and Sean at Charleston Crafted updated their laundry room with a plywood countertop and created a great space for folding all the laundry!
Just as they did in their first house Morgan and Sean created a plywood countertop in their laundry room. But this time it has this amazing geometric design. Not only do they have folding space in their laundry room now but it looks so stylish!
Katie with Houseful of Handmade created concrete countertops in her kitchen and with the materials she used, she was done in one day!
For a unique wood look why not torch it! Yes, that's right. Zoe at Crafted by the Hunts torched wood for a countertop and created a very fun and unique look!
If you are doing a bathroom and want the look of wood for countertops it is possible! Zoe with Crafted by the Hunts created a herringbone wood countertop for her powder room and explains how to waterproof them!
Contact paper is not just for lining shelves! You can use contact paper to transform your countertops just like My Wee Abode did here.
