Garden Ideas; Transform Your Garden With Spray Paint!

Transform your garden with spray paint!



I found this gorgeous garden photo on Pinterest from A Room With a View's facebook page.  Since I recently added some blue glass & pottery accents to my tiny shade garden for color,  I thought this spray paint project would be perfect!   I dug out my old Moroccan lantern; cleaned it and added a coat of primer:

Then added a couple coats of blue spray paint.

DIY Upcycle Old Junky Finds Into Something New


DIY Upcycle Old Junky Finds Into Something New! You can transform anything with a little spray paint!  I found these brass candlestick holders and lamp base at a thrift shop and did a good scrubbing with dish soap. For the paint,  I prefer Valspar because it covers really nice, dries super fast and seems to work in colder, more humid places like Seattle!  I found the most variety of colors at our local Fred Meyer supermarket rather than at the home improvement stores.



The rim of this candle holder was chipped so I glued a lid from a jar with my E-6000 glue.  I sprayed everything with a coat of primer and let it dry.

I added several coats of the turquoise and now I have something fresh and new!  The tray was an old black Pottery Barn wood tray I already had and wasn't using. Super simple DIY project.

Feel free to post links to your spray paint make-over projects!
