Ok…I’m starting SMALL! After the kitchen reno, I’m just easing back into things. For instance… this little arrangement that I had in a bookshelf in my kitchen no longer seems color appropriate. Cute.. just needs a little chameleon-like makeover.
Because I tried like heck to pull those flowers out didn’t want to ruin the arrangement I covered the flowers tightly with a plastic bag.
I’m going to be honest here, I went blindly on this one. I have a garage filled with paint cans and I just wanted to use what I had. I wasn’t sure that paint was actually going to adhere to the ceramic.
I used my favorite primer KILZ and it did the trick!
Then onto the right color for the kitchen, and (insert time lapse here) VIOLA.
Until Next Time !
And as always…. Thanks for Reading!

Kilz primer, oh good idea! I've been priming some things this morning with Valspar primer and it doesn't seem to be working so great, I'll try the Kilz.
