just a little spray paint


Before
I got this little toile egg and stand at a thrift store operated by my parents church in East Texas. It was really cute but seemed a little blah, so I got out a can of black spray paint....

After

It took one minute to spray paint that clear base and I think it looks so much better. The black base sets off the black toile on the egg now.

Terri over at PennyAnnPoundwise also used a little paint for a quick makeover on a bowl.

  4. So glad you joined in!
    It's amazing how a little change in color can make a big difference in the look of the entire item. That's what I call paying attention to the details. Good job!
    Have a great weekend.
