Natacha Créative breathes new life into her kitchen with Formica® brand products

09/12/2022

Quality makeover at a lower cost

During her kitchen renovations, Natacha Watier, author of the Natacha Créative blog, was looking to give her existing countertops a new lease on life. She wanted to create a unique, fresh and modern look that would pair well with her new cabinets and white island, while keeping the project’s waste and costs to a minimum. 

She and her husband decided to cover their old laminate countertops with Formica® brand Carrara Bianco design. To lend them an even more modern look, Natacha decided to cut off the counters’ rounded edge and replace it with a straight edge.

“We chose Formica® brand products because we wanted to make sure we got a result that was trendy, high quality and long-lasting,” says Natacha Watier, who knows the Formica brand well. 

This project required a lot of preparation and attention to detail to ensure a professional result that met their expectations. As a designer and blogger, Natacha wanted to show her subscribers how to complete renovations easily and inexpensively and provide them with a detailed step-by-step demonstration on her blog and YouTube channel. 

“Although we worked very hard and it took us several months to transform our kitchen, I can tell you without a doubt that the work was a rewarding and fun experience,” says Natacha Watier. “We’re very pleased with our new modern countertops, which suit our renovated kitchen perfectly.”
