Pop of Spring in a can

By Debbiedoo's Team Published: Mar 18, 2015 · Modified: Mar 18, 2016

Today, I am sharing a pop of Spring in a can.

Spring in a can

I love to recycle cans and craft with them later on.

Adding a color pop for Spring with recycled cans I have been sprucing up the front porch.  The weather is absolutely beautiful here.  Warm, sunny, and things are blooming like mad.

Painting cans with chalky paint  You just never know when a craft moment strikes. It struck this morning.

I brought out the

Chalky paint

and little wax.

Decorating the front porch for Spring with color

I painted two coats of chalky paint and brushed some dark wax.  Then I lightly distressed the cans.

Made some burlap bows, like I made on my burlap bunny wreath.

Painted and embellished cans for the front porch

 That’s about it for now.  I have to go out and sweep my mess I see. Always funny what you notice in pictures opposed to right in front of your face.

Cheery sunny porch

Notice the all the blue? Yes, I love blue.  It all flows with the Haint Blue porch ceiling.  And of course, I shared my all things Blue back a few weeks ago.  I told you I love the color blue!

 Have a great day and thanks for stopping over today.

    I love the pretty spring colors, Debbie. It’s just something that I cannot do in our house, ‘though I do wish I could add more color. Enjoy yours!

    When You said haint blue it reminded me of the blue colors people on the coast of S.C. Painted their houses to ward off haints Are you from the South? I’m from McClellanville, SC.
