Now to my post!

Growing up, I always knew it was Spring when Mom broke out the cans of spray paint! Smile

Every year, Mom would give all of her outdoor furniture, planters, and other décor a fresh coat of paint with a spray can.

I felt so much like my mom this past week as I broke out my own spray paint cans and began sprucing up my outdoor planters.

I LOVE doing this every year because I feel like I am getting brand new furniture and planters for just the cost of spray paint.

This planter was actually my mom’s and was hanging on her front porch when she passed away.

Since the weather was beautiful out, I laid the planter on a piece of wood in our back yard to spray paint it.

I sprayed the with glossy black paint.

I also went to Lowe’s that day and bought some flowers for my planter.  Geraniums are my favorite flowers….RED geraniums to be exact!  I also bought some little white flowers plants and a couple of ferns.

While I was at it, I decided to paint my plant stand a fresh coat of paint!

I also touched up a few other pieces with my black spray paint, and then I placed some of them on the front porch.

We haven’t painted our columns white yet because we are waiting to paint the trim when we paint the brick.  (Which will be soon, I hope!)  So when we paint our brick, all of our trim and the columns will get a fresh coat of white paint.

 

I cannot wait to see my porch with a fresh coat of paint!

But for now, I am making the best of what I got.  Smile

Cy and I have already enjoyed sitting in these chairs and looking out on our front yard.

And I’m loving my geraniums in their “new” planter!  See how pretty, shiny, and new “she” looks?!!

 

Do you spruce up your outdoor décor with spray paint?

What have you spray painted lately?
