RK3 Designs is a learning studio focused on teaching how to create beautiful epoxy finishes using Stone Coat Countertop Epoxy. These tutorials include epoxy countertops for kitchens, bathrooms, and much more. This channel provides tutorials for DIYers, contractors, designers, or artists.
Rhonda Dracoulis Founder and Primary Instructor
RK3 Designs started as a way for Rhonda to showcase her creativity but has blossomed into a way to help others find theirs. Her obsession with painting led her to start refinishing furniture and kitchen cabinets. She found customers wanted a nicer option than laminate but more affordable and customizable than natural stone, which lead her to countertop epoxy! Since then, she’s helped thousands of students, from across the country (and even Canada eh?).
If you prefer a more hands-on learning experience, book a class with Rhonda today: www.RK3designs.com/book-online RK3 offers numerous classes that cater to different levels of experience.

I love this.. I’ve been looking for ideas on how to do my counter tops and I think this is about perfect for what I’ve been looking for.

[@sarahb8271]

Girl, you amazed me with that plastic bag!!!😯✌️

[@RK3Designs]

🥰🥰

[@blmannonymous5898]

Definitely your best granite. I wish I saw this bag effect before I tried a different one of your videos called white granite

[@carolboreckiartistry5545]

Grey cabinets would look amazing.

[@beckyherrell2870]

Absoluteley georgous, you rocked it girl,,

[@cheryllicata4198]

Love this Rhonda

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!!

[@smwon1]

I like the black

[@janelle6508]

I actually love the black fracture lines, would've added more!

[@Lisa-pn8wf]

I love watching you create. I especially appreciate that you share all of your process. As an artist, I want to do my own epoxy kitchen counters, but I’m not as comfortable with playing in the epoxy as long as many of your videos do. So this is perfect!!!! I agree that a dark grey cabinet would be wonderful, but…really any color would be enhanced by this.

[@klynndubois6200]

I love it! But every time I see the wall behind you I want to see the green on everything 😂😂😂

[@KristiSage]

Holy cow is that beautiful?!!! WOW, girl. Stunning! I am going to say right here that that, Rhonda, is your best, background/under painting I have seen yet. And I haven’t even got to the epoxy part yet. Yes. Yes. Yes, to all of the above on the marble SP! Going to give this a try. I have no doubt ppl will go bananas over it!

[@RK3Designs]

You’re so sweet!!! Thank you!!!!!

[@sandieyule1644]

More videos for beginners! Please...I think black lowers or even navy with white uppers would be stunning.

[@maggiekurtz9978]

We did this same thing on our kitchen counter and it is absolutely beautiful! I had a couple of low spots after my flood coat so we did a second flood coat.I love it!

[@mikeneubauer21]

For someone like me, who got into this technique on walls back in the day, it brings back some ideas!

[@RK3Designs]

Me too. Remember the sponge painting 🤣🤣

[@leslieapplegate65]

I have a piece of marble that was in my Grandmommie's house in southern Illinois. This looks just like the real thing.....

[@RK3Designs]

Awesome!!! Thank you!

[@robyn3270queenofcups]

RHONDA! This my absolute favorite finish and yes you did it grays!! I love it. I really like the black marble spray it wasn't to much and it didn't take over. I could definitely see this finish on black, dark grey, or white cabinets! 😍😍😍❤️❤️❤️! Thank you! I loved how this was recorded. Got to see so many different views of what you were doing!

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!!!! I’ve got a new video team and they are awesome!!

[@marysorrells]

Ohhh my goodness this is one of my favorite finishes. I’ve done this in two of my rent houses, And several tables. I do a black base coat with caramel, browns , creamy and rust colors bagged on.

[@chrisseremack4631]

I liked it before the white spray paint and alcohol were applied, and I absolutely LOVE the black Montana marble finish. You have given me so many ideas for my kitchen counters, and I think this one might be it. Thank you so much.

[@RK3Designs]

Awesome. I’m glad I can help

[@vegasmainiac7745]

I love the depth of this finish! Dark gray or slate cabinets would go well with this

[@RK3Designs]

I agree!!! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@Paula-po9kx]

Thank you Rhonda. Oh girlfriend this speaks to me, love love it❤❤❤

[@RK3Designs]

[@andreamoore8072]

[@RK3Designs]

You’re too sweet!! Thanks!! 🥰🥰

[@sebnemk2596]

I really like this effect very nice finish😍Thank You

[@janjones4772]

I really like the back,looks like veins,love it, first time watching, love it, I’m wanting to do my countertop, my house is pretty old,nothing has changed. I thought about buying new vanity’s But there is nothing wrong with it,just need a face lift,wish I could do one on myself. How hard would it be,maybe paint or dry brush the cabinets and do something like your doing on the sink, Can I do the sink? It all one piece, it’s plastic.? Love your video,really enjoy watching something New. Have a wonderful day,👍👍👍♥️♥️😊😊

[@lindysmith5482]

I love the Montana black as well! ♥️

[@RK3Designs]

Me too!!!

[@RK3Designs]

That would be beautiful!

[@kathifisk305]

Love it! This finish could go great with any color cabinets.

[@RK3Designs]

I think so too!

[@belindagalle97]

Personally, granite finishes are not my preference. I do have to say that this finish is very pretty. Great job, Rhonda. TFS. 🤗

[@RK3Designs]

Thank you!!! 😊😊

[@waynesmith2942]

love it

[@RK3Designs]

Thanks!

[@griffinmelissa74]

Can you do this same process with a black base? And what colors would you use?

[@ivanperez3615]

They make so cool stuff 😊😊 I love this Chanel ❤ all I do is watch your videos 🥸🥸🥸

[@RK3Designs]

I appreciate that so much!!! 🥰

[@datilman9146]

Do you think this technique would work on a old bathroom sink from the 80's?

[@RK3Designs]

100%

[@poledanceuniverse]

I am curious why we always talk about countertops. I think it would look very classy on kitchen/bathroom cabinet doors.

[@RK3Designs]

I guess because that’s what we specialize it but you are SO RIGHT!!!! There’s so many awesome projects you can do!! 😊😊

[@southlandsweetheart]

What type of rustoleum spray paint are you using for the building of layers? flat, semi gloss , gloss....?

[@RK3Designs]

Gloss is always my go to. If that’s not available I’ll use semi-gloss or satin. I stay away from matte/flat sheens.

[@staceyfinch2158]

Where can we see the complete finished product?

[@RK3Designs]

This piece was just a sample for a tutorial, it wasn’t installed. 😊

[@jtme8108]

I love every layer up to, but excluding, the alcohol-slopping which creates the cells. Cells are not as much natural looking as they are a fad, and fads always go out of style, usually, long before the countertops need redoing. I'd use charcoal gray cabinets, or whatever the darkest color in the countertop is and shiny, or satin, silver hardware. I think white cabinets would wash out the counters.

[@RK3Designs]

Awesome. I so appreciate your feedback!!! 😊😊

[@appl314]

Has anyone tried to use a counter top laminate as the base for a shower wall rather than the pink board? I'm concerned on the amount of space the pink board will take from the tub's horizontal depth and in addition the desire to still keep it symmetrical around the tub opening.
