Spray Painted Mason Jars

My spray painted jars:
At first I placed the jars over top of the medicine cabinet for extra storage in bathroom. They didn't stay there long! I'm always changing things up...

So easy. All you have to do is spray paint the inside of your jars with pretty colours
My inspiration jars came from A pumpkin and a princess (see pic below)

I thought they needed some pop so I added a painted white lid


Hope you like! As you can see from my recent posts, i'm on a green/blue kick lately! 
I just can't stop... Thanks for stopping by!

Upcycled Mirror

Thrift shopping is one of my favorite past times.  I'm always looking for some treasure that I can make beautiful. So when shopping at a second shop a while ago, I picked up this:
This is actually a mirror. I've taped the mirror right before I decided to give it a paint job!



I decided to paint it aqua blue with spray paint. I figured it needed some colour since the wall I would be putting it on is white. I wanted it to have some pop...
After a couple coats of spray paint

And after the tape was removed it looked like this:

One of the reasons why I wanted this mirror in the first place was to put over top of dresser where I keep my jewellery.  And so here it is all hung up on the wall.

Do you like the blue? Or should it be a different colour? Should I rough it up a bit? What are your thoughts?

Project Price Breakdown:
Mirror - $6.00
+ Spray Paint - $5.95
Total Project Cost $11.95

I'd love to hear your thoughts!!!
