Shopping the house....


{A little bit 'o spray paint}




I've been working on my kitchen re-do and trying to spend the least amount of money that I possibly can!  So I had these brown stars hanging in my kitchen.....



Since I am going a lot lighter with my walls and trim, I decided to put a coat of Rustoleum Heirloom white on them.....



After they dried, I took a piece of heavy grit sandpaper to them....following the edges and then just scratched them up....



I love the change.....but even more I love that it didn't cost any money!


What are YOU working on??  Link it up on Thursday to Thrifty Thursdays!

What a great idea! I have some old reddish brown barn stars in a cupboard that I would love to do that with!! The distressed white is great! Thanks for the inspiration.
