House Art Revamped


This little blue bird of happiness was chirping to me to pick him up and carry him home from an art show...so I did. He started out as a washed-out blue with orange splatters and was not a happy little guy. I sprayed him a nice blue, painted a rose vine and painted his happiness song. He is now residing on the front of the house watching over all the little birdies.


This lovely heart didn't start out too lovely. Love hearts & roses so I purchased anyway...though very rusty & blah. I do like some rusty stuff but not this heart. I painted it 3 different colors before I was happy with my choice. Then I sprayed the banner and painted a couple of roses on it...If is says "I Love Roses"...there aught to be some roses don't you think? It now hangs cheerily on my wall in the backyard. Sometimes on dreary days, like today, I run out back just to look at it to cheer me up before I go inside from a long day at work.

Isn't wonderful what spray paint can do, and now there are so many colorful choices.

Isn't paint wonderful? It is the cheapest way to redo something. I love how these turned out. Your roses are so pretty too! You did good! :D
