On my first trip to Goodwill ever, one of the items I found was this decorative urn/pot. I didn’t keep a picture of it in its original state, but it was a white with some gold detailing. I spray painted it black.
Hated it! I put it on the side until I felt like spray painting it again and figured out what color to go with. I finally decided today was the day and I went with Heirloom White {basically back to what it was when I bought it!}.
I used up my Michaels gift card today and was looking for some greenery while I was there. I saw a Maidenhair Fern, but it was too green, not quite the right green. Then I thought boxwood, but all they had was boxwood garland. I bought it anyway thinking I’d figure out a way to use it. Kind of like the beauties I bought from Polly at Make Mine Beautiful, which I shared here.
I snipped and placed pieces into some foam that I placed in the pot and I am kind of liking the way it turned out. I still wasn’t crazy about the design on the pot, so taking another cue from Polly, I got some ribbon and hot glued it over the design. It’s a pretty brown and cream color.
And then, because it needed a little bit of bling, I pulled out this earring I had purchased at Goodwill. These were clip-ons. I snipped off the clip part and hot glued that to the part where the ribbon ends met.
Ta Da! Done and I am liking it so much better. I have also learned that not everything I get at Goodwill needs a paint job!
