Spray Paint LOVE

It's no surprise that I LOVE spray paint - I have at least 10 cans of spray paint at any one time. I use it to spoof up anything, like painting my dining room chairs, painting frames. Truly anything that needs a clean up or re-style - I grab it and my spray paint and outside I go.

Take for instance these sweet little owls..

 
I bought these from Marshall's - the smaller one was black and I painted it GOLD over Thanksgiving and the taller one I got about a month ago each was 2.00 on clearance...SCORE

Turquoise and white spray paint make for an instant home décor pick -me up....Can you see why I love that paint so much. It's super cheap and can make-over just about anything and any surface. Remember that next time you find a knick knack somewhere that you think would never fit in to your home décor - now with some spray paint - you can make anything fit your life & style....

Let's Paint

Oh wow - another week gone. I have been taking loads of photos of all the things I have been busy making with the intentions to blog about it all and have yet to do it. Doh! anyway, Friday night is here and I have decided to sit and BLOG...and here is a fun new technique to try.

Here is an easy way to create a simple piece of art for the upcoming holiday or any holiday or occasion. Let's get started.

All you need is some basic supplies: a canvas any size, some paint, some stencil letters or stickers (all sizes) and some MASKS if you have them.....

first - add some paint to the canvas

 
I chose some orange paint and painted the background - I didn't paint to the edges but you could.
 
then I added some stickers OVER the orange paint and spelled out the words GRATEFUL FOR YOU  and added some fun masks (TIM HOLTZ)
the photo below is of all the stickers and masks on the canvas

 
then I took the GOLD METALLIC SPRAY PAINT and sprayed over the whole thing...

 
then I took off the stickers and added some white detail just so things would pop.
I know that the colors are a bit odd together this year I am going for a gold, black and orange scheme --- for my Thanksgiving decorations.

 
See all together it doesn't look too bad right? I have more to share so I will be back
sooner than later.
