SIMPLY SPA

Just in time for summer:
A simple revamped vignette of "SPA" using Catalina Mist colored spray paint & some things I had lying around...HAPPY SUMMER!!

An old cookie tin, some tag sale dark wood candlesticks and ball jars:  all things we have lying around.



I LOVE my mercury glass birds...





some old cookie tins before the catalina mist...

Thanks for stopping by...

    Whoever invented spray paint, should get an award! I just love how instantly you can change an ugly duckling into a lovely swan. Of course, I guess that's kind of what "taggers" are doing sometimes, too.....lol! Love that Catalina Mist -- I used that color on something a couple of years ago, just can't remember what! You created a lovely vignette!

    Wow--what a great color--I would have never thought to paint tins--they look great! Would be great to use if you need to make an item higher in a setting--great idea!

    Hey you! You beat me to using that Catalina Mist paint. I just bought 2 cans of it this past week. I LOVE the color and am trying to figure out just what to use it on. Oh, well, I am always at least ONE step behind someone else (or two or three steps!;>) xo Diana

    I love the sea star you have. Did you get that from the sea or did you buy it?
