Learn how to make a concrete countertop for your kitchen

Secure a strip of melamine to each of the two-by-fours to form a 2 to 2 ½-inch wall for the concrete form. The top of this wall will mark the depth of the countertop, so ensure that the installed height of the melamine matches the desired depth of the finished countertop. If you make it too thick, the countertop surface will not be a standard elevation from the floor.
