Spring Has Sprung
And it had me inspired this weekend to add a pop of colour to my coffee station. I felt like the coffee maker side with the cups and spoons needed something. A little touch of style. A little something special. So of course when Bauer pranced up the yard with a sweet plastic rose in his mouth I immediately thought “hey – I can spray paint that”. And thankfully the previous owners of the house left behind a whole collection of spray paints. In it, I found the perfect red to pull my beautiful spring spoons on to the other side of the vignette. So yes, you read that right. This little addition was 100% free. As long as you have random stuff in your yard and a stash of paints bought by someone else you can basically make anything for free. Hopefully you don’t have random stuff in your yard because although this flower was cute, most of what we have out there is not. Here is a picture of the rose before, all dirty and outdoors like.
And here she is again after a wipe down and a few coats of red spray paint. Somebody stop me, I need a spray painting intervention.

Doesn’t it compliment the spoons wonderfully? It’s difficult to see from far away. but up close the spoons have plenty of red in them. I love these pops of colour and fun for spring.
I found four more of these cute plastic flowers in the yard yesterday. Now I just have to decide what colour they should be painted. I hope you’re all enjoying your week. We’re halfway already. Time flies when the weather is nice.













The red ties in perfectly! Cute idea, and free just makes it that much sweeter!
I think you need your soil checked if you’re growing plastic flowers out there
Kidding!
The red looks great.
I’ve never heard of finding good junk in the yard, usually just bottles and tires (I am from the almost south after all).
It looks GREAT! It adds the perfect pop of color to the other side.
Totally matches those spoons! Great little pop on your new station!
What a cute random find! It looks really cute on your table!
How cute! It’s like it was meant to be!
