Our Concrete Countertops
We bought our home 14 years ago and the counterparts were new but cheap material.
I have always wanted to have concrete counter tops made but they want so much money I started researching and decided I can make them myself. I decided to pour it i place so I put in re-bar and framed it right on top of our existing counter.

I put primer on the counter so the concrete would adhere and then added re~bar and wire mesh.
Here I am screwing in the forms.
Messy job, that's for sure..
The sand with the wet sander was SO SO messy.
Finished!!
Yay~it's done and cleaned up..

Angelia, your kitchen countertops look pretty cool. . The work that you did looks somewhat alike to the plans that my son planned out. He created a layout of how his countertops should look like. http://www.lamfab.com.au/laminate-fabrication/laminate-benchtop-links
