And It's So Very Creative Monday at It's So Very Cheri

As part of the major cleanup in the garden after our soggy cold and wet winter, I've

been pulling out garden ornaments in need of some attention.  I'm tired of the "rust"

look on many of these plant stands and outdoor thingies, so I got together with

some of my new favorite color of green spray paint.  You may remember that I

began this project back at the turn of the year by redoing an old birdcage.

As often happens I started in with the spray paint and I forgot to get a before shot

of this vintage wash stand with enamel bowl.  But believe me, it was completely

rusted and all it's chippy paint was gone.  At one time this resided in a very

pink girly girly guest room, then moved to the garden for a number of years.

It certainly needed some sprucing up for Spring!

Here it is with its first coat of paint, with some other garden ornaments

waiting in line for their makeover.

I did some thinning in some of the succulent beds and took some clippings from another,

added some potting soil and here is the little wash stand all ready for a summer in the garden.

Next in line was a tea cart and a bird cage ...... more on that for Tea On Tuesday and another project for Saturday Night Special coming up.  Anything stationary is likely to end up green, so

keep on moving and come back to see what goes green next!
