Hi everyone, what a lovely start to the week! Some sunshine & painting out doors & the added surprise of having my car washed for me (it’s a HUGE car!) by the lovely people at Adelaide Hills Toyota when it was in having its service today!!!
Well this week I’m starting out showing you some cute little tin can makeovers I did, they were great for using up odd bits of ribbon, decorations & fabric!
I first cleaned all the sticky stuff off then washed them through the dish washer. I used a universal undercoater (taubmans 3 in 1) to prime & stop any rusting. Then I did 2 coats of gloss enamel paint. (Letting dry thoroughly in between coats!)
Then I set about making them pretty!
I have got loads of cans waiting for this treatment! I’m going to do some really bright ones for the boys next so stay tuned!!
I’m sharing this week at: Home Stories A to Z
