Last year I bought two topiaries to put on either side of the server in
my dining room. I wasn't crazy about the little cachepots that came with
them. I looked around for others, but didn't find any that I liked that were
not super expensive. So I took another look at them and thought ~
I could do something with them to glam them up a bit.
So I went into my paint box and grabbed a celery green craft paint and painted
the whole cachepot a muted green. Then I took some gold craft paint and
highlighted the feet, the edge and the bas relief on the body.
Now they are lightened up and glammed up too with just a little bit
of paint and an hour or so.
Here is the before ….
And here is the after. Easy peasy and done for pennies.
Now I am off to recover two seat cushions in the dining room too.
Bentley and I are doing only inside projects these days. It is too
darn hot outside to do anything! Hope it's cooler where you are.
Big Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
