diy: luxe home accessory

Photobucket
If you're looking to add some pizazzzz to your home, need an awesome house warming gift or simply want to rock your diy world (hello long weekend project perfect to do poolside!) check out this metallic goodness from P.S. I made this...

"Whether you have the golden touch or were born with a silver spoon in your mouth, there’s no time like the present to indulge in the world of metallics! Gold and Silver materials are significant status symbols that wreak of high-end style. Live luxe and love your interior surroundings by incorporating the recent wave of modern metallic accessories into your home.

First, reach for Kyrlon’s Metallic spray paint, available at any hardware store. Next, find distinctive everyday objects such as kids toys or athletic/ sport items. Hit up the local Dollar Store, which also has inexpensive offerings to spray. Apply two coats of paint (be sure to spray in a well ventilated area). Once dry, you have instant chic metallic accessories for your home!" -
P.S. I made this...

I'm so going to town on the most random objects I can find - metallic everything here we come!

p.s. new 'Good Ass Job' Kanye leaked. Lovezutoooo.

I constantly have my gold and silver spray paint on hand! Last week I spray painted a tree stump gold and it makes a lovely end table. Great idea with the toys. Must do that next!
