White knick-knacks


This is a neat little trick. We've all got old trinkets, knick-knacks and figurines placed carefully out of sight around our homes, in drawers and under stairs. Those little objects you don't really like but can't bring yourself to throw out. Well don't!! These items in their original form may lack appeal, but look past their garish color schemes and you've got little works of art at your fingertips. This project could not be easier - all you need is some Valspar spray paint, some knick-knacks and a little imagination. Before you know it you'll be the proud owner of your very own mini works of art that you'll want to exhibit with pride.

Step by step guide
Step Number1

This is a really quick and easy project that offers maximum effect. You really don't need masses of spare time. Try and choose items for spraying which have pronounced shape and texture as this will give the best finish.

 
Step Number2

Find yourself a well ventilated area and lay down plenty of newspaper.

 
Step Number3

Take your items one at a time and apply one thin even coat of Valspar Flat White Spray Paint. Two or three thin coats will give better results then one heavy coat. Allow 15 minutes between each coat.

 
Step Number4

Your decorations will be thoroughly dry in 1 hour. Place your rejuvenated knick-knacks against similarly white-painted embossed wallpaper for a really sophisticated look and feel.

 
Step Number5

Note: Always follow usage instructions on the reverse of Valspar Spray Paint cans.
