Have you ever looked at something and thought it would look good if not for the horrible paint color? Meredith has helped me realize the endless possibilities with just a little bit of spray paint!
I recently purchased this wooden "welcome" sign as I thought the size would be perfect above my refrigerator. The color however, seafoam green, was not what I was going for! This frame has been sitting in a box since I got married - oak is also not my thing. I decided to work a little magic and let Andy use it in his office for pictures of the family!

The only tricky part is getting the inside of the letters, I sprayed my first coat with the sign laying down and went from there. I used a satin black spray and did one last top coat with chalk board spray paint to give it a nice even, matte appearance.
This took about 1 hour start to finish, even with drying time in between coats!

I am so glad to see another post...I've missed you two!
I love spray paint! and the chalk board plates are darling! I am totally going to make some of those!
I do love a can of spray paint! The head boards look great and I love the chalk board plates. Did you re-paint the girls room? It's very similar to the color in Cozette's room. Your girls room looks fantastic! And they will love sleeping with each other.
