Remember this Goodwill find?
The brass container was just not doing it for me. Then....I decided (for some unknown reason) to spray paint it. White. I. Know. What was I thinking? You can check it out here.
I was oh so careful not to get any spray paint on the arrangement.
I know. The horror. *faints*
So...then I found this can of spray paint that was ummmmm....orange. Still...what was I thinking?? Guess what? I then had an ORANGE container. Then...Shenita over at Embellishments By SLR suggested I put some sort of stain over it. I think that's what she said....that's what I read anyway....and I just so happen to have stain on hand. Which was a good thing. Another good thing was that it was not some off the wall color that I was going to slather on the container one way or another!
Here's my end result!
I actually like this better. Not sure if I'm done with it...but it's looking much better, right? Just say yes, mmmmkay?
