Butter chicken is soooo yummy. I have to tackle that one day. It's not easy......

OK....I don't know if this belongs in this topic or not.....but here goes.

I have spent the last week chipping off three layers of flooring in my kitchen.  A layer of linoleum,  a layer of lino tile and a layer of gunk.  I bought slate tile to replace the floor, (which does NOT belong in the best deals thread).

    SO......now that I'm down to the concrete slab.......I thought that the raw concrete floor looked identical to the slate look tiles I just spent a fortune on. Complete with  'grid' markings from where moisture or spills have leached into the seams.  It has taken on a really nice mottled look that 25 year old concrete does.  I've decided to paint on more defined grout lines, lay a couple coats of commercial grade varathane......and voila.......a 'slate' tile floor for the cost of a can of varathane.

  It looks very much like the tile in the lower left. (except square and not pinkish)

PC! Looks fantastic!! You're such a handyperson. I love it. I think it looks great on your kitchen floor. Hmmm...... wonder if I'll be able to do something like that in the future?

Awww shucks. [img style="CURSOR: pointer" onclick=url(this.src); src="vny!://www.cheesebuerger.de/images/smilie/konfus/a100.gif" border=0]   It's not so much 'handy' as it is that I get a kick out of doing stuff that looks rich, without a rich budget.    I have this blasted knack of selecting things, without knowing their price, that turn out to be the most expensive thing in the store.  But I'm fairly frugal, so I start trying to figure out ways that I can get 'the look' I want, in a different way.  Sometimes it works......sometimes it doesn't.

  I'll find out soon enough with this one.  No biggy, if it doesn't work, not much lost and I can continue and just tile over it.
