It doesn't help that my husband works full time and it's been pretty much all DIY.
He and his friend, Doug were able to finally get started on the concrete countertops. We built the mold and poured them in place. The color became more of a flesh color and we then used an acid stain to change the color.
We built foundations.
Then we mixed and stirred. I'd like to add the color was my husband's choice. We had originally chosen a charcoal color, but he decided to pick more of a brown.
Then we poured.
Then this fleshy colored appeared.
I should add our new sink was installed prior to and I love it!
Then we sanded and polished to smooth out the counters. It brought out a lot of the aggregate.
Since we didn't like the flesh color, we decided to order an acid stain in ebony. LOVE IT!
As far as counters are concerned, it just needs sealer and a polisher.
We still need to do the backsplash, install the microwave and do some other small finishing touches.
