A quick spray painting project
I picked up this little clock last year at a yard sale for 50 cents. I like old clocks. Even though this was fairly new looking, I could see that it could have the potential to look a little older and more fun with a coat of spray paint. It has been sitting in my basement for months. I don't know why I didn't do this earlier, but I brought it up, and spray painted it with a couple of coats of Krylon's Catalina Mist in Satin. I love how it turned out, and I plan to put it upstairs on my bookshelf with my real, vintage clocks. Isn't it amazing what a coat of paint can do to transform something?

I love the color! I'm going to have to get me a can of that color- seeing on something makes me realize it would be the perfect accent color for my front room. Thanks!
