My Front Porch

Being on a fixed income I couldn't afford regular patio curtains, so I bought 2 white water-resistant shower curtains at Family Dollar and spray painted them. for 25% of the cost. I now have shade and have dressed up the front of my 70 year-old house.

When I replace them, It will look a bit more professional. It will be interesting to see how long they last through the different seasons.

That is a super idea. I would have never thought you could paint flowers like that with spray paint. So cool!
