121st Power of Paint Party.. Faux Ceramic
Welcome Paint Lovers to this week’s Power of Paint Party… a party all about paint for those who LOVE it!
I’ve got another giveaway going on this week from Birdsong… super cute bow and accessories! You can click HERE to enter!
Oh… and we can’t forget! The winner of the $75 Amazon voucher (selected by random.org) is… Cheri Peoples!!! Congrats Cheri!!!
Last week I showed you my burlap’ified bookshelves. Well… in “I can’t keep well enough alone” fashion… I’m still tweaking the décor and decided I wanted some more white on the shelves to really help make the burlap pop.
I noticed Dollar Tree had some plastic fruit, so I picked up some apples and pears. I put tape around the stems… and then hung them outside.
With a few coats of Krylon’s Fusion spray paint (made for plastic) I had some wanna-be ceramic apples and pears.
So what have you been painting?
Power of Paint Party Rules:
#1… This is a PAINT party… so pretty please, link-up only paint related projects.
#2… I’d love if you put my nifty POPP button (you can find it up in my menu bar’s BUTTONS) in your blog post or a link back to this party somewhere on your blog… that way others from your blog can check out all the paint projects too. (not a requirement but always appreciated)
#3… Share the Love… visit the other paint pals.
Thanks a million for hosting…Happy Thursday!
First visit, I added you to my Tuesday Links List. Thanks for hosting. Painting season is back, unless it rains all day again 🙂
Thanks for the party!
What a great idea. They look all sleek and chic now! The white looks wonderful =)
Thanks for hosting!!
Hi Maryann. I have missed your blog! I somehow lost touch, I changed my domain from blogger to WordPress and in the midst of all the changes, I lost touch with some of my favorite bloggers and link parties. Going to take some time and catch up on what I have missed. Hope you had a wonderful Easter, thanks for hosting. -K
So glad you found me again! I recently (Dec) made the move from Blogger to WordPress too.
Very clever, Maryann! These little faux ceramic fruits add such a punch of sass to your bookshelves!
Thanks for hosting!!!!

Yes… go quick! You know how quick things can disappear there.
such a great idea!!!! I am going to pin this to remember later when I go shopping!!!! THANK YOU
Heads up that I WILL be copying you on this one! Thanks!
🙂 Yeah… .go for it! I grabbed their satin formula… I think the glossy wouldn’t look as “ceramic”
Your apples and pears look so good! That makes me consider painting the bowl of fake green apples I have. Hmmm. 🙂 Thanks so much for hosting!!
Go for it Beth!
Painting the plastic fruit made such a difference. They really look like ceramic pieces. Thanks so much for hosting, Maryann!
Thanks Brandi!
