Sprucing up for summer

This is a decoration I have on a wall in my backyard. After four years all the colors have faded. I went to a local craft store last night and walked away with small bottles of paint and brushes…And VOILA…new life again. Took me back to grade school!!!

Looks like fun!

BEAUTIFUL!!!

Did you apply a finishing coat to help it make it through the weather?

I am still painting…but will put a lacquer coat on once i am through to help preserve it. Now that I have started this project I am eyeing other things (pots, planters, etc) to use more of the paint. I was engrossed today!!!

So good to see bright, cheerful colors somewhere. (We’re looking forward to the first spring snowfall that I can remember here in the DC area.) You’ve done a wonderful bit of restoration. I love it!

finished project…lacquered and hung!

Not sure why my photos always post in the wrong position!!

That looks so good! Nicely done.

I love that!!

Lovely! :heart:

Looks BEAUTIFUL!

Looks great!

Pretty! Perhaps your fishies like swimming upstream!!?
