Thrift Store Cloches Makeover
Most of the time, when I shop at a thrift store, I don’t buy anything. Then, there are those few times when I feel like I hit the jackpot and find some pretty exciting things. Last week, I went into the last store of the day and found so many good things. You can see my haul on my YouTube video HERE. Two of the things I found that day were a pair of tall cloches! I couldn’t believe they were still there and they were also half off! JACKPOT! I loved the shape of the cloches and how tall they were, but I wasn’t a fan of the gold top. I knew that was an easy fix and I am excited to share this thrift store cloches makeover with you!
Supplies Used In This Thrift Store Cloches Makeover (aff):
Modern Masters Primer Modern Masters Bronze Paint Modern Masters Blue Patina Aging SolutionThrift Store ClochesPaint Brushes- Put two coats of the primer on. Make sure the first coat is dry before applying the second coat.
- Once the second coat is dry, apply one coat of the bronze paint.
- While the bronze paint is wet, spray the Blue Patina Aging Solution over the paint.
- Let the magic happen. Once the solution is dried, the project is done.
- If I missed a spot with the solution or I want more of the patina look, I paint the area again with the bronze paint and spray with the solution again.
These cloches will be used all year round. I will fill them with nests and eggs for spring. I will add faux plants under them during summer and Christmas decor in the winter. So many possibilities and they look great no matter what is under them.
