I remember reading a book several years ago written by a man named Fu-Tung Cheng on how to make your own concrete countertops. I’ve admired concrete countertops for years now, and I’ve read many books and the tutorials on how to DIY them over the years. I just like the solid natural soft gray color with the subtle color differences that are characteristic of concrete. I don’t like that sparkly stuff that some people add to theirs to simulate the look of granite (or actually quartz) countertops. I don’t like stained concrete countertops at all. Here’s a beautiful example of what I like from Houzz. So while I’m still dreaming about and deciding on all of the details of my future kitchen, I think the one detail I’m certain about is that I want concrete countertops. The cabinets aren’t even ones that a coat of paint can save. The current kitchen is just a small little box filled with outdated cabinets and finishes. I find myself doing a lot of planning and thinking and dreaming about what I want my kitchen to look like. Oh, how I wish I could show you pictures of the inside!! But you’ll have to wait another month, right along with me. I still have plenty to do around the condo to keep me busy for the next month, and hopefully our closing date at the end of this month will stick.Īnd of course, until then, I’m planning and dreaming about the changes I want to make to the house. But I’m trying not to wallow in my disappointment too much. That house is starting to feel like the illusive dream that will never materialize, always just out of reach. I’m feeling a bit of disappointment today, as this is the day we had originally hoped to be in our new house. ![]()
