A couple of items got a refresh with a coat of Rustoleum’s Heirloom White spray paint last week. Neither of them warrant a post on their own so I’ve combined them together here. First up is this little holder that I keep on my home office desk to hold paperclips.
I’ve been wanting to spray paint this white for years and finally got it done. I tend to hold off on spray painting items until I’ve got a couple to knock out.
Looks like a brand new piece and I like it much better in white.
I also painted this small gold urn.
I’d had this in my booth and it came home with me when I closed the end of April.
I think this will make it easier to move around into different rooms and vignettes in my home.
Sometimes a simple refresh with some white paint is enough to make me feel like I’ve got a “new” look without spending any money!
Don’t forget to enter my Bowdabra giveaway here! Ends May 31st!

Amazing how things look so much nicer once they've been painted! Love that little holder you're using for paper clips!
Oh wow, both look wonderful. I love those little cherubs, and the urn is the perfect size.
They look great in white!
I especially love the white urn.
Paint magic! You've updated these pieces so nicely! I love your choice of white.They look so pretty now.
I love everything, Kathy, especially the urn. I think we in the colder climates get that bug to spray paint this time of year (unless we have a place to do it that's safe in the winter). I have a few painting projects here and at the lake and boy, I'm ready!!
Thanks for stopping. I didn't want to offend anyone with the cat issues, I really think any animal lover is a friend of mine. And kittens...sigh! I just associate them with misery and I experienced my daughter having an asthma attack when she was 4 years old just from holding one for 5 minutes. No tolerance for that anymore.
Hope to get by more often soon, my friend!

They both look great in white, Kathy! Amazing what a little spray paint can do! Hope you're having a great day!
I'm always for white. Love the moss ball, I have a bunch all over the house, some in urns, too! xoKathleen
You gave those pieces a fresh new look!! Kathy we have some of the same decorating books :)
A little white spray paint does wonders! Looks great!
Hi Kathy- Would love for you to link this later in the week to my Friday Favorites party! I love a good can of spray paint! laura

They both look better..Love the clip holder..very cute..
Very pretty updates, Kathy. I love the moss ball, too.
Hi Kathy, The paper clip holder looks amazing on your desk painted white. I have the same urn too and also painted it. Mine is holding a bird's nest at the moment.
I tend to wait and spray paint when I have several items to do also.
Great updates!
Hugs
Hi Kathy! Oh, the little touches really do matter! I love your little pieces in white! Thanks for popping in to see my Little House.
Be a sweetie,

It's amazing what a fresh coat of paint does to an item...The cutest paper clip holder I have ever seen!!
Love how you turned those into shabby chic cherubs! They are darling
Oh don't you just love getting projects like that done?
Can't believe how much better each one looks - well done, Kathy!!
I love spray paint! :) It is so amazing to me how you can change anything in minutes and it will look brand new. Love, love your updates!
I like to use spray paint to freshen things up. For my daughter's furniture makeover, we are spray painting the wooden drawer knobs metallic chrome. Fun!
Great job! I have several things in my closet that need the same treatment.
Great job Kathy, love the paperclip holder.
