Staining a Concrete Patio

I stained our concrete patio using Quikrete concrete etching stain. I used a garden sprayer and applied the stain in a circular motion. Check out my blog post: http://beauxrevesamore.blogspot.com/2012/07...

I am proud of my kitchen

I remodeled my 1970's kitchen myself. I refaced the cabinets with wainscoting and picture frame molding. I did my own tile work on the countertops and backslpash. I also made my own roman shade above the sink.

    tamp it down and it gets as hard as concrete basically- but without the expense mess and forming requirements of concrete. Plus it has a little natural give which helps keep pavers from heaving and cracking- and it makes repair possible over time.
