Hand Me Down Updated

Take one old vase you got from your Grammyma
This had been in my granmas house FOREVER and I always loved it one day she gave it to me.
But it's colors were a little old fashioned.
So take one can of heirloom white spray paint...

Ta Da! <3

A little about Upcycled


" You can stay the same, not lose anything, but never know what there was to be gained. Or you can RISK, guaranteeing some loss, and yet gain more than you knew was possible." -author unknown

I really do take the furniture I re-sand, re-paint, re-stain, re-cover and sometimes even re-sale seriously. There is no ugly furniture. You can make it into something beautiful with [most of the time] just a coat of spray paint!

OK I'll admit that painting does have some risk... But going back with the quote. I will say that I have never regretted painting a piece of furniture natural wood or not.  And it's a friggen coat of paint if you don't like it re-paint it. $25.00 later you'll have a piece you love and that makes everything worth it.
