Upcycled Succulent Planter

A few weeks ago, I stumbled upon this interesting object at my favorite shopping destination (Goodwill for those of you who are new around here!).....no clue what it was, but I bought it anyway.
Whatever this thing was...I thought it would be a cool planter, and a great opportunity to try out my new Country Chic Paint sample!
Before I could paint though, I had to widen the long hole on the top of the object in order to be able to fit plants in it. I mostly leave the power tools to Mr. M. (although I'm slowly learning), but even I can operate the Dremmel MultiPro.

    I like everything about it. Paint color and finish (product name?). The gold accent was free hand or stenciled? Color name and product? I'd like to find this same piece because I would replicate what you've done!

      Thanks Barbara! All of those details can be found in the blog post (link above). I'm not sure that you'll find the same exact piece, because the wood seemed to be hand carved, and was donated to Goodwill. But the post may provide you with some inspiration on creating something similar!
