Fearless Friday, Spring Decorating Ideas with Paint!
Posted by the Painted Apron on March 15, 2024 · 22 Comments
Now that Spring is in view both on the calendar and outside,
a paint brush can help with your decorating!

This wreath was transformed from a weather worn green wreath
to a Spring beauty, with a pink bow and paint!


Give a plain jar or canister a make-over with paint and a little bling

You can see the full tutorial here

A plain white bird house from the craft store,
got dressed up with paint
and now it’s a Polka Dot Birdhouse

I had some other bird houses that were already painted
in blue, green, and yellow with white roofs

I saw these MacKenzie-Childs birdhouses which I drew for fun~
Whenever I’m tempted to buy something
sometimes I draw it instead 😂

I decided to jazz up the plain birdhouses with a little paint and bling
in a MacKenzie-Childs style

Stripes, checks and dots, and a few beachy things

With a mini cake dome to match!
You can see the full tutorial here and the cake dome here

A cardboard cactus from the craft store turned into a flowering beauty
with paper flowers and paint

Look around your house and find something
to transform with paint!
Be Fearless!

Good morning, Jenna. I love the painted bird houses. Yesterday, I was thinking some of our outdoor furniture needs a coat of paint. That won’t happen on this rainy Friday. As always, thank you for the inspiration!
Thank you Pam, not a good day for outdoor activities! Have a good weekend, I hope you get to see your 3 leprechauns! ☘️
I love how you transformed and renewed simple items–especially the wreath!
Thank you Linda, it’s always fun and satisfying to make something old new again!
My granddaddy would build birdhouses for me to paint and I still have a few. Your things are so springy and lovely! – Going to the Fairhope Arts and Crafts Festival tomorrow – weather permitting! I’ll be thinking of you and your talents as I see all the artwork!
That is such a great art show, I used to go every year! I hope the weather permits, it’s been pouring in Birmingham. Thanks Leslie Anne, have fun!
You certainly know how to take the ordinary and turn it into some extrordinary with lots of bling.
Thank you Karen!
Oh boy, you just reminded me I need to take the Christmas wreath down from the side door I rarely use!
haha, yes, it’s probably time to take that down!
You made them all so fabulous! Bright and colorful and so cheery!
The wreath is festive, and the birdhouses are fun. My favorite, of course, is the saguaro cactus and cactus wine glasses!
Thanks for being so inspirational!
Thanks Nancy, a paint brush is a magic wand!
I would have never thought of spraying a floral wreath! Thanks for the creative ideas!
Paint can work magic!
Jenna, what wonderful ideas to welcome spring and they are all lovely. I love the polka dot birdhouse – it looks so pretty the way you have displayed and the cactus and cactus wine glasses are so fun. The MKC cake dome is wonderful and it reminded me of your painted hydrangea one. What fun you have had and thank you for sharing!
Thank you Kim, sometimes a paint brush can be a magic wand! You are always so sweet and I appreciate your kind words so much! 💕
I love your creative spirit and fearlessness with your paint brush Jenna! 🖌️🎨 I have some birdhouses that could use a boost in curb appeal. 😊 Happy Spring 🌷💐💜
A paint brush can be a magic wand! Thanks Mary!
Love your painted birdhouses!! I will have to try painting one from the craft store – yours are so cute! 💗
I love to transform things from the craft store, so much fun! You could decoupage something with pieces of your Gelli plate papers and scraps!
Ooh, I like that idea! Thanks Jenna! 😃
