Don’t like your countertops? Try one of these affordable DIY countertops to transform yours on a tiny budget!

One of the most expensive parts of a makeover for a kitchen, bathroom or laundry room renovation is the countertops. When we gave the powder room in our old house a facelift we opted to do DIY countertops to stay on a super tight budget. We wound up going with a super cool concrete overlay using the same technique we used on our DIY fireplace. I had no idea if it would work on a vanity and in a sink, but it totally did! We still LOVE it, and it was PERFECT for the look I wanted.

And in our new house, I recently painted our old outdated granite countertops to look like beautiful honed marble! But the two methods we have used to update our outdated countertops are just TWO of the options out there! I have been floored by all the amazing DIY countertops out there! SO many talented bloggers have come up with budget friendly options and tutorials. This list is the best DIY countertops around the web–you are sure to find the perfect one for whatever room you are working on!
