Girl guides is wrapping up and as much as I love those little critters.. - they SERIOUSLY wear a leader out.
Not to mention it's fundraisers, camp planning, badge ceremony mayhem for these next couple of weeks.
Also did I mention..
Our house is for sale???!
That's all I can say for now, basically because that's all I know! Hahah it's for sale.. We will see where that leads!
So that's a whole other dilemma, keep the house in showing condition with 3 cats, a dog and a baby, greattttt.
And let's just throw into the mix me returning to work in two weeks.
I can't, I just can't even.
So the beauty posts have been light lately but bear with me :))
Today I'm going to share a tiny little DIY, (I know I've been the DIY queen as of late) seriously though this is beyond easy.
First, save all these ugly baby milk cans (or any old can!) for a rainy day.
*tip spray paint really travels! Watch out for clothing and shoes. Do not spray red while wearing crocs... Unless you enjoy being called chicken pox feet. Uh huh!
Where are we at.. Fourth??
Bring inside and say to self "Awww these turned out pretty"
Fifth, collect plenty of rocks and stagger them at the bottom of the tins for drainage.
Whooo hoooo someone buy our house so I can have some new blog material!! ;)
Happy Monday bloggy friends!! XOXO
I am loving those planters!
ReplyDeleteWe are having the same problem with our house & our two boys. They can be such a mess sometimes!
Thanks so much Tiara!
DeleteThe struggle, we can spend all day making the place shine and 24 hours later it's a disaster zone again.
In love with these! So easy but they look amazing! I have a huge spray paint collection too, honestly they're the best thing ever!
ReplyDeleteIt comes in handy for so many things :))
DeleteOoooh I might try some sort of spray paint on the glass jars like you did with the tape!
Wow! These are pretty. <3

DeleteHow gorgeous! I have a huge spray paint collection, but need to get better at the whole spray painting part! haha! I feel like my projects always come out with some sort of glob on them!

DeleteMe too! Sometimes I get impatient and want it finished right away so I spray too thick and it gets all globby! hahaha

I seriously love the wonder of spray paint. It just makes everything better! :) Also, those cans look extra awesome the way you styled them on the tray. :)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Justine!
DeleteSpray paint is the band aid of DIYs, it can fix any boo boo ;)
Cute planters!! And good luck with all those life changes coming at you at once. We sold our house last year, and keeping everything clean and ready to go at a moment's notice with a toddler...well, let's just say I feel for you ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much Nina!
DeleteIt is like brushing your teeth while eating oreos as they say! hahahah
Let me know if you have any tips :)
I used to be a girl guide when I was younger! What a great experience.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with everything happening in your life! Sounds like an exciting time and I hope everything works out!

Thanks so much Melanie!
DeleteCrazy busy but so fun :))
The girl guides are such nuts, they keep me laughing that's for sure! ;)
It's a super idea! We often need such cute trinkets for house to make it warm and sincere. Last year my aunt planted tomatoes. She likes planting but lives in small flat on the fifth floor. So she used for a planting coloured buckets. I must say they suited to the interior of her balcony. It was really cool!
ReplyDeleteDo you have to put potting soil in the cans also?
ReplyDeleteIf you want healthy looking plants, yes but mix some original plant soil with potting soil before placing plants in cans...." HAPPY PLANTING "
DeleteTalking about having a house to clean up after the kids attacked it.....add 3 dogs, 2 cats, 2 ferrets and a love bird ( I JUST happened to save from being devoured from 1 of my neighbors cats )...ADD THEM TO THE MIX....UGH!!!
