Kitschy Bamboo


For me, bamboo adds just the right amount of exotic flare...it's sustainable and eco-friendly too. I found this great wine holder at the goodwill {talk about being green, buy second-hand!}, really cheap.

Four dollars later, my new wine rack and I were on the way home. Never mind the fact we don't drink...I had other ideas! This is a versatile piece! It doesn't have to hold just wine bottles...letters, or vintage seltzer bottles, that would be cute too!


BEFORE:

Not bad, but it looked a little too tiki for me...I wanted to update it with some paint


DURING:


Rustoleum Primer, of the spray paint variety.

AFTER:
(Ivy Leaf from Krylon)


Exotic slash Coastal slash kitschy slash love it!

It's going to help me corral my magazine collection for a while! I photographed it with just a few magazines, but it really holds a lot!







I can't rave about the Krylon paint enough...look at that finish!




I also painted the starfish in Peekaboo Blue from Krylon. It was a rusty metal color, something I picked up at Hobby Lobby's garden dept. It is the heavy iron metal, I thought it would make a great paper weight! Love it in blue!

Thanks for stopping by! I hope you're inspired!
