that post title doesn't mean what you might think!
some people 'flip' furniture. (actually, i've done that, too).
now i 'flip' home decor elements each season...
sometimes more than once IN a season!
and my favorite tool for changing how things look is paint.
i never let the color of an item found at a thrift store or yard sale
or even in my own storage bins limit me -
because it's SO EASY to repaint things to make them fit my current decor style.
so when i discovered this little ceramic bird on a bottom shelf at
Dollar Tree,
the very last one they had in the store,
i didn't hesitate a moment before dropping her into my shopping basket:
the pink color isn't BAD, it just doesn't fit my decor.
but with a few ideas and some paint, i gave her FOUR NEW LOOKS
and i created spring wreaths / wall decor for three of those!
continue reading to see how all four turned out...
