And here’s how to achieve that granite styling on your side tables:
Preparation
You have everything you need? Then get started!
Step 1
Determine the dimensions of the rectangular tabletop or the diameter if the side table has a circular top.

Next, cut the foil to size along the marked lines using the utility knife.
Step 4
Remove the backing paper from the piece of granite-look foil.
Step 5
Apply the foil to the surface of the table and smooth it down firmly using the doctor blade.
Step 6
Now carefully cut off the excess foil along the tabletop edge using the utility knife.
You did it!
