MILK CAN MAKEOVER

No one in my family likes my garage-sale milk can find. If something happens to me question my husband’s story as we JUST completed our trusts). The first thing he will haul away is my milk can.

I Know.

So I decided my milk can makeover was the perfect way to honor my favorite garage sale find. Here’s my second favorite garage sale find. .

MILK CAN

MILK CAN MAKEOVER

There is a lot happening in our family room. With our remodeled stone fireplace, the room feels a little heavy with pumpkins, pumpkins, and more pumpkins.

So I wanted to take it down a little with the milk can.

PAINT

My milk can gets a paint make over most years. But I am so in love with my favorite creamy white paint that I skipped this step for this year’s fall debut.

I added packing material that I keep on hand for my repurposed projects and just stuffed it inside the can. It gives the stems a little more height. A few years ago

o I added fresh branches when an early snowstorm brought a few branches on the patio.

It might have been a bit much with the branches overpowering the same corner.

And then I recycled some blue floral stems to compliment the Hale Navy paint that trims the family room windows. It was nice to take a break from my traditional orange berries and pumpkins this time of year.

Outside these windows are leafy trees, and so I wanted a less complicated look so my floral stems would not compete with twenty-year-old trees just beyond the window.

I added a little grapevine for a little contrast.
