How to install a Live Edge Slab Countertop
What happens here
Enhance the bar's aesthetic and functionality by adding a backsplash and under-counter lighting. The backsplash is created using a flexible material that mimics a 'brushed nickel' finish, which can be cut with scissors. This material is installed in the gap between the two wood slabs. The electrical sockets, which were previously recessed for tile, are now built out to be flush with the new backsplash material using a backing material (like cut-up beer boxes, as shown by the creator). Finally, install lighting underneath the upper slab to illuminate the stone base, creating a warm ambiance.
Goal: Add decorative backsplash and functional lighting to the bar area.
