Spring, finally, may have sprung here in central Illinois...
and I decided it was time to update some of our stuff. First up, the wicker plant stand:
for the record, turquoise spray paint isn't just everywhere. Valspar makes two pretty shades of it though, Tropical Oasis & Exotic Sea. I like the Tropical Oasis a little better- its the color I used on this plant stand.
While standing in the paint aisle at Lowe's, I started talking to another paint shopper. She convinced me to go ahead & try to paint some planters. She also apparently buys spray paint because she likes the colors, not because she has a project in mind for it. I can get on board with that- collecting spray paint like I collect... yarn, paper, fabric, any thing with color...
So I started with this old urn... it's a little beat up. I washed & used a little steel wool over it. This was painted with the exotic sea color of paint. It's a little brighter than the other color.
and here you go!
I love it!!
Now to go through my stash of planters & see what else I can transform...
