Giani Granite Giveaway



Whoever owns a home new or old always wants to fix something. Weather it be just something to your liking or because It really needs to be replaced. Counter tops are one of the ones well It's ugly but I'll live it. Giani has a great product to get a new look with out the new price!

They offer many colors from Sicilian Sand, Roma Red. Chocolate, Bombay Black, Emerald Green, and Sapphire Blue. I love them all, I wish I could have more then one kitchen! I choose Chocolate Granite because it goes great with out white distressed cabinets. 

    

I do have to admit I did not think It was gonna work great. I was like what the hay, not like we can have worse counter tops! So we started the process and I did not like the black and it was not looking nice. I started to regret that I messed up my kitchen. Then we proceeded with the dabbing of different paints, Still didn't see how it was gonna look like granite. So we finally got all the paints on, 3 to be exact and "WOW" I said. It really did look like granite, I was now excited and amazed! I just transformed my kitchen and made it look 100% better. It gives the great look with out the huge price! I am so happy with these results, I wanna paint everything! 


The process was a two day event. A lot of waiting, 8 hours for the first paint job, then 4, then another 4, then 1 more hour. I did not mind doing the work it took, not hard work, and got a great finished look. It was not that hard to do and REALLY is fool proof. I thought a couple times, I dabbed it to much or I slide my sponge, Nope did not hurt the look at all. After it is all dried, I went back and added a couple more dabs to break up a color. Then painted it with a clear coat two times to give it a shine and protective coating. 

The down side for us was, we did our huge back splash with it too, We dabbed  it but dabbed ti with to much paint and made the paint drip. My advice Is if you do a back splash, dab really lightly, you can always add more later!  

I am super impressed with this Giani Granite  kit and love that is only cost 50.00 for a bran new, clean look.  The wear so far has been great. I love this product and am no longer afraid to show pictures of my kitchen! 

These are the steps of my kitchen! ENJOY!!

  28. Bombay Black is my favorite. I like how you can get 3 different shades from that one package. I would try to get the effect of the middle shade.
