Signs of Spring

I’ve noticed a few tell-tale signs of spring at my house. 

 

The trees have beautiful little buds.

Gerbera daisies are on sale at the market in my favorite color.

I started painting everything Heirloom White again. 

 

The urge hits me every year.  These candlesticks were given to me and were originally a faux mercury glass finish.

 

In the fall I painted them black.

Now that things are slowly warming up and I think I just might survive this year’s bout of seasonal affective disorder, they were lookin’ a little gloomy in their darkness.

Look out, friends, I’ve got a WHOLE QUART.

  1. I am just like you, I love painting things white. Although I think I might have rather kept the mercury glass color on those, but I really like how they turned out. Ever thought about painting them some pop-color, like high gloss red, yellow or blue?

  2. The mercury glass finish was cheap and wearing off, so I thought it needed a change. :) I love the colors you suggested!

  3. Kimm - did you use a brush or foam brush? wondering how you keep from getting brush marks.

    Thanks! Renee
