Sneak Peek: Kitchen Countertop

When I watch all those design shows on HGTV, the best part is the Big Reveal! and not necessarily how they got there, which is of course interesting, but doesn't provide the "wow" factor. Well, here's the Big Reveal on the countertop! I'll do the in-depth analysis later on.
