Trying Something New #1

Yikes, I am late on this post! I'll do better tomorrow. National Craft Month or not there's still housework to be done and small children to tend to. We had beautiful weather. I opened a window, hung my diapers out to dry and caught up on mundane tasks like dishes and laundry. I also finished up two more of these puppies.

I actually need to give my husband credit for this one. My grandmother gave us three tins of popcorn for Christmas {over Thanksgiving} and when they were empty I was going to take them to the trash. *GASP* I know! What was I thinking? I was thinking I had no space to store them 'just in case'. But my dear husband found a space on the fridge and that's how our kitchen was for a few months.

Changing these into flour bins was a neglected item on my to-do list for a while now and I'm so happy I've finally tackled it. It took a few several coats of spray paint to cover up those cute pups, many hours of drying between and a label purchased from Say It on the Wall and now I just need to find a home for them in our small kitchen. I could have made some labels but don't have vinyl plus since I'm a fan of SIOTW on facebook I was able to take advantage of a 50% off blue light special. She has some great vinyl to use for organizing, motivating, decorating and other things.

{disclaimer: this is not a review of Say It on the Wall products, I did not receive product or payment to say anything about this product.}

Keeping It Real

• This is my first project involving spray paint.
• I'm not very patient with spray paint.
• I am however excellent at getting drippy paint marks using spray paint. {that takes special talent}
• My husband is much better with spray paint and did a finishing coat for me. {likely out of pity}
