"This DIY cleanser just happens to be the same way i like taking my tea, with honey and lemon. I have used lemons in many masks and scrubs and the result is clearer skin over time. the lemon really clears up those blemishes and dark spots. If you haven't tried it before then here is your first mask."

Wild and different idea. I have never heard or seen this before. It certainly would be different. I wonder if it would stand up to things being dropped on it or would it chip? And how do you clean it? Epoxy is treated differently than regular flooring. I will have to do some reading up on it before I try it.

I love this! I am definitely putting this on my to do list! This is a great thing to do with all of those pennies that get put in a jar and locked away. I am completely amazed with this project! And it sounds so easy. I am thinking how great this would look with nickels! I would love the shiny silver with my black appliances. Maybe a combination would be good. So many great ideas, and so much inspiration!

This is such an amazing project! I haven't seen them on Pinterest but will be sure to look up penny projects now. I think this would be a great backsplash in the kitchen or in the bathroom. Has anyone made a penny backsplash yet? I am wondering if the Elmer's Glue is strong enough to hold the pennies vertically on the wall.
