Countertop with Paper Bags


Pin It
So I Got some paper bags, yea from Trader Joes and tore them into small pieces and then I crinkled them up...

Then I dipped them in a mixture of glue and water and squeezed them out and layed them out on the counter... oh and I did a light sanding on the counter before I started.
Then I wanted to add some color so I took some water colors and smeared them around..


And this is what it looked like while it was drying..

Then I put a bit of metalic paint, just for a bit on  interest...
Then I put Satin polyurithane on it, about 4 or 5 coats


And this is what it looked like

Pin It
I ended up changing to whole color of the kitchen afterwards... and might change it again, but not yet




I did add a few things to it at inconspicuous places...


This one was still wet when I took the picture
