Easy Floral Pitcher Makeover

I found this pitcher at a local thrift store and the shape was perfect!!! Thanks to a little spray paint and bling, a floral pitcher makeover was about to happen…

On the day of the project, it was sunny, which is preferred when painting outside. There was a breeze, too, which can prove to be a blessing as much as a curse when painting. While it helped to dry my project a little faster, it also made the bugs that flew in its path stick to my paint. I have no tips for avoiding this from happening. It’s just part of it I guess…


SPRAY PAINT

is truly the only supply you need for this project, other than your vintage vase or favorite, not favorite piece to be painted. I used  Rust-Oleum Painter’s Touch Spray Paint in Glossy White that was made for indoor and outdoor projects. It worked wonderfully!TIP: I used a piece of wax paper underneath the pitcher so that it wouldn’t stick after painting it.


STEP BY STEP
  • Clean your piece and let thoroughly dry
  • Spray paint your piece using short, light passes and several coats, letting each coat dry in between.
  • Decorate if desired with ribbon, twine, or even your favorite bling
  • Display with or without greenery, twigs, or flowers


SO PRETTY

I love how this thrift store find turned out! It’s on display in my home on a stack of books and looks as if it always belonged there. Speaking of books, one of my favorite projects  Hand-Stamped Book Decor DIY with Bling Tassels used old books I had lying around.
