I have just ordered 5 sheets of 30"x96" bamboo for a kitchen counter top. There will be three seams. Any suggestions on making the seams less visible? Thanks. Bill

Inlaying an accent stip at the seam can add a nice touch. If you have the light colored bamboo, try a dark colored strip, or visa versa. Also switching from edge to flat might help.

Nor sure what you mean by switching from edge to flat. Thanks for replying.
