A Procrastinator's Party!

Melissa at The Inspired Room is having her second Procrastinator's Party! Just in time to get some of those projects done before the holidays get here!

The project I am proclaiming is the frames below. I have four large frames in my garage that I have had for a couple of months now. I want to paint them - three black, one possibly creamy white.

I have plans for them all - four different rooms, different uses in each room. None of them are for framing a picture! Now that it is cooler outside, I think I can stand to go outside to spray paint. Until now it's been so dang hot I wasn't about to go outside to paint!!! No way!
I bought them for $6 to $8 each on clearance at Hobby Lobby.

I think I will need my boots when I paint because in Kansas the wind is allllwaaaaays blowing. Here is my tip of the day for you - if you don't want your shoes to also be spray painted, you, too, can wear boots just like mine!
I started to choose my bathroom for this project, which is STILL painted in Kilz-primer-over-ugly-wallpaper. But I was afraid I wouldn't get it done. I'm still thinking about trying to do it, too. But I don't know. Uuuuhhh. Pathetic. Well, if I do it, you can be sure I will show it at the reveal in two weeks, too.


Go to The Inspired Room to see more before photos - and then come back in two weeks for everyone's after photos! I can't wait to see what you do, too! I need some more inspiration from you!
