I have never seen or heard of a penny floor before but I love this. It is super cool, we were looking to re do our floor in the camper van and I think this could be a super cool feature in the van and a real talking point too as well.

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 project. It's such a fun way to get rid of all of those pennies we collect over the years.

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.

I've seen things like this in restaurants and stuff, but I never considered doing it myself until now!
