Fearless Friday, Paint Magic

Paint can create magic~

It’s amazing how sometimes just a little paint

can transform something from blah to ahhh!

I rounded up some of my painted creations to inspire you

to experiment with the magic of paint

This red truck is cute, but a little boring…hmmm

That’s better!

Little Red Truck Makeover

You can paint just about anything!

I painted these inexpensive forks to match

some pretty Pfaltzgraff plates

Painted Flatware

You can paint on other silver pieces too,

trays, bowls, candlesticks, bottle holders…

Painting Silver

A plain green leaf wreath was spray painted white

Then green lines were painted down the center of each leaf

The berries were painted pink and a pink bow was added

Spring Wreath Makeover

Valentine’s Day is coming up,

you can paint a Hugs & Kisses table runner

with paint and butcher paper and

make napkin rings to match with painted ribbon

XOXO Hugs & Kisses

I love MacKenzie-Childs and all of their colorful pattern mixes

I took a plain glass apothecary jar

and transformed it with paint into a MacKenzie-Childs look-a-like

MacKenzie-Childs Inspired Apothecary Jar

This ceramic goose also got a MacKenzie-Childs inspired makeover~

she went from Plain Jane to Little Miss Fancy!

Little Miss Fancy

Paint place mats to match your plates

for a fun touch on your table~

I used the painted mat as a base for the centerpiece in this tablescape

I found a plain brown paper cactus at the craft store

and with paint and a few faux flowers

it was transformed into a blooming beauty!

Cactus for Cinco de Mayo

I couldn’t resist painting glasses to go with it for a

Cactus Themed Tablescape

Cactus Glasses

It’s fun to paint furniture too~

This table got a complete makeover that updated it

and now it goes better with my new decor

I hope you will look around your house and find something

to transform with the magic of paint

Be Fearless!

  2. This is a fun post, Jenna, and you remind us all of the possibilities! I especially love the painted glassware and the truck upgrade!

  5. So adorable. I don’t think it ever occurred to me to paint forks!

    You always inspire, and I love how that little red truck turned out. My hubby has a similar truck in navy blue, and I asked if I could paint it and he denied me 🙂 LOL

  8. Indeed, you do create magic on every piece you work on! 💖💖💖

    Oh my goodness Jenna – you really can paint anything, including forks! Wow. The little truck looks so cute and I hope to see Little Miss Fancy on a tablescape. The brown paper cactus was quite the transformation and I adore the cactus wine glasses. The painted placemats is really cute too. Such fun and inspiration!
