Spray Paint Update

Good as new

I have a can of spray paint and I know how to use it! Sounds like a weapon…and it is when you can update faded exterior light fixtures for under $5! After shopping for new fixtures I decided to try this economical update.

No screwdriver necessary

I’m not proficient with electricity so rather than risk getting fried to a crisp I opted to leave the sconce right where it was for painting. I just covered the brick and glass with paper and tape.

Glider facelift

After finishing the fixtures I was inspired to spray our metal glider. Now I’m even eyeing a large old faux clay planter.

What have you spray painted lately?

    I love spray paint. I have had so much fun turning Thrift Store finds into Treasures. I have even sprayed our towel bars, bathtub faucet and nobs to give our Master bath an updated look for not much money!
