Makeover a Simple Garden Urn with Chalk Paint
Since so many kind folks have asked where I got the Urns on my Living room mantel, I thought I would share with how I gave them a makeover with paint to create an aged, distressed look.
I started with a plain, stone planting Urn from Home Depot that looked like this (they also sell plastic Urns that I think would work just as well).
Here’s what I did:
Then I added a layer of Cream and let that coat dry. I was sure to paint around the inside of the Urn as well.
When everything was dry, I lightly sanded it, focusing on the edges to bring out each of the three colors and giving it a distressed look.
