Paint, Plants & Dirt

Oh what a beautiful day it was yesterday.
I just had to take advantage of the wonderful weather.

So outside I went
with empty Nesquik, beans, dog food, and tomato sauce cans,
plus 3 cans of spray paint.

Lime green, yellow and teal.

Spray, spray, spray.

It really is a good idea to take off your rings when painting.
I got so jazzed about doing this job that I forgot.
What is interesting is normally I do not wear my rings
around the house, just to much to mess them up.
We had plans to go out on Sunday, so put them on and forgot 
to take them off.     Sigh.  
Good news.....the rings cleaned right up, good as new!

So after painting my cans, and myself, I began to plant.
Are these not cute.  Little cactus
Tomato plants
Aloe and Hens and Chicks
(Remember to click on the pictures to enlarge).
Next step is to add twine and little labels, these
are all being donated to a fund raiser here in our town.
I love how they came out.
 
Just to cute
God Bless you and this country.

these cans look absolutely beautiful, I'm always amazed at what paint can do, love it. Too bad about your hand and your ring, good thing that it washes out.

Hello, Happy Pink Saturday! Love your pink post this week. Your tins came out really pretty! Glad you got your ring clean! Thank you so much for stopping by and leaving a sweet comment. I don't always use the pretty plates, sometimes we just fix a plate from the store too! LOL Depends on my mood,
I wish you peace! Shirl
