Maybe you thought you saw a "granite" countertop, and didn't realize you were looking at the freshest designs from laminate manufacturers--until you were close enough to touch. &lt;em&gt;Countertop Creations&lt;/em&gt; specializes in custom-made bevel-edge laminate tops, in a nearly infinite array of colors and patterns.&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7227/1936/1600/Bevel-edge%20Pic.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 2px 0px 6px 6px; CURSOR: hand" alt="Photo courtesy of Pionite ©2005" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7227/1936/320/Bevel-edge%20Pic.jpg" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;What's so special&lt;/strong&gt; about bevel-edge? Well, when we use one of the premier granite look-alikes (shown at the top of the page), your eye will think "stone" first. The softer chamfered edge gives these countertops smoother lines, like stone. With bevel-edge, your countertop's facing edge doesn't show any of those familiar "laminate-lines" like you seen with normal self-edge (square-front) tops. That helps create the illusion of real granite, at a small fraction of the granite price. And if stone isn't the style you're looking for, you can choose from hundreds of other patterns, colors, and combinations. We can mix and match laminate choices to form a bevel-edge countertop that is uniquely yours, whatever your taste may be.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;If you can imagine&lt;/strong&gt; it, we can build it for you. Want a brilliant white top surface with a matte-finish black facing edge? We can do that. Call, write, email, fax, or stop in during business hours to see and touch samples of these beautiful countertops. You'll wonder why you ever considered that second mortgage for granite countertops.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19547116-113382597977210160?l=ctopcreations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ctopcreations.blogspot.com/feeds/113382597977210160/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19547116&amp;postID=113382597977210160&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19547116/posts/default/113382597977210160'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19547116/posts/default/113382597977210160'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ctopcreations.blogspot.com/2005/12/bevel-edge-tops-rock_15.html' title='Bevel-Edge Tops Rock!'/><author><name>Frank Martello</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/02682277593253262831</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19547116.post-113469538435852896</id><published>2005-12-12T20:00:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2005-12-17T15:06:48.746-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Yeah, we built that!</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2442/1716/1600/3820BehindDesk.jpg"&gt;&lt;img style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 5px; WIDTH: 505px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 349px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" height="330" alt="Behind the scenes" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/2442/1716/400/3820BehindDesk.jpg" width="466" border="0" /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Countertop Creations is a full-service custom laminate fabricater. Our expert staff has the ability to create complete laminated systems, like reception desks and file-storage cabinets. We offer mixed-material designs, too. Integrating metal trims, wood edges, and even hardwood tambours into your design results in stunning pieces that will impress clients and customers.

Pretty snazzy, isn't it? You can have one just like this in your home, for just a few thousand dollars. Okay, that's probably not a practical suggestion. Just imagine, though, if we can build &lt;em&gt;this&lt;/em&gt;...we can make your new countertop look like a work of art, too!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Sharp observers will notice the handsome man standing behind the desk. We're not sure who he is, but rumor has it his initials are "FM." And his last name rhymes with Jello®. And he owns a countertop fabrication business in the Rochester market. We know he isn't the receptionist; that's for sure!&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;We'll have a couple more pic's from this project posted in the near future. Stop back and see. By the way, if you have one of our tops in your home, send us your photo so we can show the world.&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/19547116-113469824579771396?l=ctopcreations.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ctopcreations.blogspot.com/feeds/113469824579771396/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=19547116&amp;postID=113469824579771396&amp;isPopup=true' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19547116/posts/default/113469824579771396'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/19547116/posts/default/113469824579771396'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ctopcreations.blogspot.com/2005/12/great-reception-here.html' title='Great Reception Here!'/><author><name>Jim Bessey</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/07875352026571948234</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='32' height='27' src='http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_PdCxXEw4eNY/SnX8zCD2E9I/AAAAAAAABpE/J4yyMatE0co/S220/Jellystone+Mexico+034+edit.jpg'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19547116.post-113370473885566432</id><published>2005-12-04T08:54:00.000-05:00</published><updated>2005-12-04T08:58:58.860-05:00</updated><title type='text'>Countertop Creations Online</title><content type='html'>Rochester's premier local manufacturer of custom laminate countertops is pleased to announce the debut of their new website, hosted by Blogger.com.
