Hello World! As you know, I’ve been working on painting the interior of our house room by room. I finished painting the half bath downstairs and wanted to give you a look at where we are so far. Also, I painted the below metal wall hanging. It’s pretty in it’s blue-gray color, but it wasn’t showing up against my gray walls.
Out came my Glorious Gold craft paint and 10 minutes later she was a pretty gold with a little bit of the gray peeking through.
Isn’t she pretty? I’ve had this wall hanging for years and used it in the previous house.
I love all of the pretty details.
Here she is in her new home. The paint color is Marina Gray by Benjamin Moore. It is really difficult to get decent pictures in the half bath since it gets no natural light at all. I have plans to add lighting to the wall next to the toilet, but that will require tapping into the electrical outlet which is on the other side of the wall in the kitchen. I think a pretty sconce would do wonders to brighten up the space under the stairs.
The little metal container will also get a paint update.
I have plans to paint the cabinets and replace the granite.
What do you think of my pretty wall hanging?

I love metal art like that! It looks so good in the gold. I recently spray painted a metal piece in aqua for my front porch. Oh, what a new coat of paint will do!

Love gold! Silver is what most people seem to like but I like seeing more things in gold these days. The wall hanging looks perfect!

Being a bird lover, I think this piece is awesome!….and this is a wonderful spot to display it. When I’m thrifting , I need to keep my eyes open for objects that I can re-purpose with a little spray paint!

Thank you so much, Suzy! It really is a fun piece!
Nellie says

Great job,
Blessings, Nellie
