Rhonda Dracoulis Founder and Primary Instructor
RK3 Designs started as a way for Rhonda to showcase her creativity but has blossomed into a way to help others find theirs. Her obsession with painting led her to start refinishing furniture and kitchen cabinets. She found customers wanted a nicer option than laminate but more affordable and customizable than natural stone, which lead her to countertop epoxy! Since then, she’s helped thousands of students, from across the country (and even Canada eh?).
If you prefer a more hands-on learning experience, book a class with Rhonda today: www.RK3designs... RK3 offers numerous classes that cater to different levels of experience.

Missed last night's live... had to finish a job for a client
Kenny & Rhonda you are SO DEAR to me! Thanks for sharing about your current medical situation.
Rhonda, get that rotator cuff FIXED as SOON as POSSIBLE!
It will get worse, not better... My husband had one and it was BAD for a LPNG time! Recovery is NOT overnight but over TIME it gets better and better.
Here's hugs and kisses (XOXO's) to you and Kenny! Carol (Nov 2021 Pro Class)
🥰🥰. I’m gonna get a MRI next week.
Just watched this again and fell in love with this finish all over again!!!!❤❤❤
This color combination is gorgeous. I'm thinking of doing the bar countertop in our basement in these colors with the clear alcohol spritz (A). Both my husband and I LOVE LOVE LOVE this color and technique! Winner winner chicken dinner!! Take it easy with that shoulder. I'm sending much love and healing your way! 🤎🤎🤎🤎
Thank you so much!!! 😊😊😊
This is my favorite piece.
I'm going to do this in all blues with a cobalt base tone.So beautiful, I've watched this video 5xs!!! 😍
That is a beautiful piece....gotta try it. Didn't think all those paints and micas would cause such beautiful color blends.. Wowza!!!! That's a knock out finish.
Thank you!! 😊😊
We need more Kenny banter in these (magnificent) videos. Thanks RK3.
Looks Awesome! You are my #1 artist on UA-cam!
It all looks great!
Every time I think I know what I’m gonna do in my kitchen next, you do another amazing finish Uhg Lol
Lol. Thanks. 😊
Stunning!
Rhonda, this is one of my favorites! Absolutely love it 😘
Thanks ma’am!
Love, love love your lives! I am going to plan my Tuesday evening for it! I’ll have a little wine with y’all! This piece is stunning! Definitely A. I’m excited to give this whirl! 😘❤️
Thanks Kay!! We appreciate you joining us. 😊
I love the new light!!!
Thank you. I think it really helps. 😊
Wow, that is stunning…! Just with the no do spreader.
I love this so much!! I recalled liked the clear alcohol, finely misted instead of the Italian drip. Lol. It still looks like an exotic chocolate fudge sundae 😂
Stunning yes spray
Me encanto precioso
Going to try and replicate this piece for a two sink master vanity...I’ve got two really complimentary bowl style sinks this would be awesome with!
Beautiful finish
Absolutely A! Gorgeous!!!
Thank you!
GRRRREAT THANK YOU and G'DAY
That is absolutely stunning!! I would love to see it with more of the pearl I am so sorry you have a torn rotator. I have been there and had the surgery to repair it. I highly suggest if they offer you an option other than surgery try it first!
Will do!!!! Thanks! 😊
Beautiful
This is gorgeous! I must admit I had my doubts around color 3 of the spray paint lol! but I really like the finished product. I can't decide between the no alcohol and the plain alcohol.
I would love to see some finishes that aren't based on earth tones or neutral colors. I'm a big fan of blue, so a finish with several shades of all blue (or all green, or maybe even all purple, lol) would be interesting. I realize you wouldn't want a whole kitchen full of this, but it might be a nice accent for a small bathroom or table top.
I’ll see what I can do for ya. 😊😊
She does a great "peacock" colored countertop. idk what episode it is tho
It's beautiful! I would like to see it in a lighter color also! A is my favorite!!!
Wine is good girl!!
Lovely
Thank you!! 😊😊
Once again: YOU NEVER CEASE TO AMAZE ME. This looks so authentic and much like my granite in my kitchen.
Thanks ma’am! 😊😊
This is amazing and defiantly A!
It's so beautiful ❤️
Love love love 💕 how do you choose between I guess you give clients athe best of both worlds. Based in the UK would love to set upy own business doing this any tips to get started ..I'm practicing practicing practicing take care keep well x
My all time favorite- I would use some alcohol on places and some without. Mica powder alcohol spray is not my thing. A and C combo.
Awesome…thanks for the feedback! I really appreciate you watching and taking the time to comment!!!
Gorgeous
Try the pearl as the dominant color.
I would get the micro surgrty on that rotator cuff injury--had one same arm about 20 years ago and it can get really miserable really quick
Im going to get a MRI next week. Hopefully all will go well. 😊
I like all three!! 🥰 I loved your little halo the light was making over your head!! 😇 Kenny, not all Karens are alike... I hope that was wine with the torn rotator cuff!! 🤞 My hospital visits with chest pains have been panic attacks... I understand that torn rotator cuffs are extremely painful. 😢 I hope the doctors can make it better. 🙏
Thank you!!! I’ll be fine. I really appreciate you watching 😊😊
@@RK3Designs You're are so welcome!! 🤗😍
very nice
Both are great but with the alcohol is awesome
a plain alchol. do you post the recipes for these. I really like this one
Can you please answer a question for me? Do you have more working time with the art coat versus the regular resin that I bought? I did purchase stone coat
A little,, it really depends on your temperature and humidity. You’ve got a good 45 minutes of great working time in most conditions.
Ps love the new lights
What color did you paint with before the epoxy?
I did a black undercoat.
I am trying to learn to do tall roman columns in my room that are cement painted white. Any advice? Is it possible?
I'd like to c something with oranges and dark greens
ohhhhh please kenny stressing you out bahhahhahah
🤣🤣🤣
I’m voting C. But I prefer less movement.
How far does a bottle of dye go?
Love them all!
How many ounces to sq ft of epoxy did you use?
Thank you. 3 oz / sq. ft.
@@RK3Designs New viewer here. The calculator on Stone Coat Epoxy's web page says epoxy should be laid on qt 20 sf/gallon. Does it seem we can get away with only 3 oz/gal (which is 42.66 sf/gal) ? If so, epoxy has just now become affordable for me
@@latitude1904 hey there. I’m not sure what calculator on the website that you used. Was it for the countertop or the river tables (deep pours). It’s recommended that on countertops (which is what I do) you use 3 oz/sq ft. A gallon of their table top epoxy will do approximately 40sq. ft. (20 sq. ft for both color and flood coat). which equates to approximately $5.60/sq ft.
OMG. I know this is an older video but I’m catching up and I can’t believe someone actually said that it wasn’t classy for you to have a glass of wine on the show! Really?!
🤣🤣. Yep.
Glass should’ve been a growler. Would make an EPIC show by the end of the cup. 🥴🤣. All kidding aside so, so, SO sorry to hear about the rotator cuff I helped my wife through that recovery and it ain’t pretty, but do it sooner rather than later. Only gets worse over time. Good thing Kenny is a good hubby because you will need him to recover. Finally don’t go to Tik-Tok for cooking! PLEASE check out Chef Jean Pierre and Chef John on UA-cam. Easy and great recipes!
Thanks Chris! Yes he’s a great hubby. 😊😊. Hopefully will get something done soon! I’ll check out that cooking channel!! 😊😊
Or the new standard of wine measurement: “The Mega Pint” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I don’t see the colors of spray paint listed ?
It’s a live so I really don’t have anything listed in the description yet. I’ll try to get them added today. I think I said the names of the spray paints I used in the beginning. 😊😊
I like A.
Definitely A
Like it with
If you want it melded then meld the colors, don't over meld the meld or the meld will be too melded and that would be a melded mess. Somebody found a new word and now overuses it.
I do prefer to not always put the alcohol Italian drips...
A👌
If you did not get blood work done they can't say you weren't having a heart attack. I was having pains too they told me that I was probably just over stressed and overworked myself until they done the blood work cuz my EKG was fine my blood pressure was fine and everything else was going they did the blood work and I was having a heart attack.
They did blood work, an EKG and a Cat-scan. Blood work was good both times. 4 hrs apart. Thank goodness. 😊😊
@@RK3Designs that's so good to hear. I was a bit worry about you.
@@darlaballenger2357 thank you. 🥰🥰
Your right Darla, my friend has had three heart attacks. The most recent occurred an hour after she left her doctors appt when they had done an EKG. Doctor said she was fine. When she returned an hour later bcuz she was having massive heart attack, the doctor was shocked!!!! She almost died. It is a miracle she survived. She spent about a month in the hospital at a cost of over a million and a half. She is doing fine now several months later. She is a remarkable woman. 78 years old now I believe.
@@politicalpartyagnostic268 wow!!! That’s incredible. I’m so glad she’s ok!
Your live comment is turned off
No. It takes a while for the chat to appear after you upload.
Word of warning! I thought I was having a heart attack, but turns out it was my gallbladder! It took 2 trips to ER for them to figure it out! And wow! The pain!!!!! Make them check it, if they haven’t already!
PS - LOVE all your work!!!!
Thank you!!! I’m going to my regular Dr next week. Will have him check. 😊😊😊
Did nobody tell Kenny that alcohol helps w bubbles
I think Kenny knows as much as Rhonda about the products they use in their business.
Can an exotic/dirty pour be done over this?
A is the best….
Wine is good for your veins...
A
and pain meds lol
