@deannatdunn: Make sure to do these things👇🏼 1️⃣ Be meticulous. The small details like straight cut lines, no air bubbles and clean caulk lines is what is gonna sell the real stone look! 2️⃣ Spend time on the seams. Of course trying to get pieces big enough to not have seams is ideal, but if not, read the instructions on if overlapping might line up the pattern better. 3️⃣ Do LOTS of coats of poly. If the countertop isn’t durable, it won’t look like real stone, so go to town on extra layers of poly, especially on the corners & seams! 4️⃣ Use a heat gun or blow dryer. This worked SO WELL and made it much more sticky and pliable on folds and edges! 5️⃣ Follow me @deannadunn for more DIYs and to see how the cabinets turn out! 🫶 thank you for being here on this little corner of the internet ☺️ How do you think it turned out?! #countertopepoxy #countertop #contactpaper #diyproject #kitchenreno house interior design renovation project home makeover ideas
Nooo keep the cabinets! They look soo good with the backsplash and countertops!

If anyone else does this definitely don’t skip the sealing/caulking parts. The last renter in my apt did this and when I pulled up the contact paper there was so much mold underneath.

Anyone planning to do this, make sure you read reviews cause contact paper messed up my rental countertops. It was hours trying to remove adhesive and we couldn’t get it all and lost some deposit. :)

Don't get me wrong I love renter diys and making the space your own but why risk the integrity of your apartment and risk getting in trouble for major modifications even if temporary?
