I wanted to join in on the Blog Party kick off over at Debbiedoos but haven’t done any painting for outside projects recently. I did do a few things last year and this caddy was one of them, so I am reposting it.
--------------------------------------------------
Last week I shared this wire wine bottle caddy that I had gotten at Goodwill. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with it as soon as I saw it.
Here it is spray painted white. I used Krylon and the can said it is good for metal, wood, etc. I hung it on a tree branch and was able to get most of it covered this way.
And here it is with faux geraniums I had stored in my basement. These are, surprisingly, done very well, and they are in tall, narrow terracotta pots {which you can just see through the wire}. I got them at Hallmark about eight years ago. You can’t really see the handle in this picture as I put the flowers on either side of it, but I can pick it up and put it anywhere I feel I need some color. Even if it is faux!
I’ve already put it in my gazebo and am eager to get this season started!
The Blog Party continues all week!

Hi Kathy, This is a cute wine caddy and I love that you thought outside the box and used flowers. I hope you will join me on 6/23 for Summer Entertaining. Have a great week!

Love this Kathy...especially since it's white! I am just loving anything white since you can swap out colors with it!
Love,

This one is worth a repost! Geraniums looks so good in white! I love the transformation.

Now THAT is an awesome idea!!! I NEVER would have thought to do that Kathy! This is why I love blogging so much. People are always asking me where I get my ideas and then look at me funny when I say "from my blog". LOL!

I love that! It looks so real and classy. ~Crystal
The white looks really great with your geraniums!
It looks great with the geraniums!
What a great idea!
I love using them for flowers, and during the summer you could even have cut flowers in them, or sweet potato vines in glass jars... oh see you got me thinking of lots of ways to use them. LOL
They are lovely in the gazebo.
Very cute idea! Definitely thinking outside the box!
Hi Kathy...
What a great project, my friend! I would have never thought to use a wine caddy for a planter or vase...you're so creative! It looks fabulous with the pretty pink geraniums...sitting our on your beautiful patio! Thank you for sharing your new pretty with us today!
I also wanted to thank you for coming by and taking a peek at my new french beauty! I always enjoy your visits and sweet note, dear friend! Thank you!!!
Warmest wishes,
Chari
Hi Kathy,
