Some coffee table sprucing up

I read that many blogs, that I am constantly finding ideas, then forgetting where I saw them. I saw this idea last week (if someone knows where please let me know so I can credit the blog). I needed to add something to my bargain Ikea table, It's lovely, but pretty boring.

So I found an old tray that has been sitting on my fridge for aaaages.



Got some Gloss black Rustoreum, that paints perfectly onto plastic, and gave the tray 2 coats.

When it was dry, I cut some fresh flowers from the garden, and added some candles, and other little trinkets.





How beautiful and simple are freshly cut cherry blossums in a vase?
I love Spring :)

Now I am fearless of spray paint, here is a sneak peak of my next project:


U-G-L-Y!!!!!!
But not for much longer!!!
