I found this elaborate frame at a thrift shop for $25. I still think it was too much for the frame, especially because it had a weird red velvet background thingy. I used chalkboard paint that I bought at Ace Hardware for $13. Don't waste your money on the chalkboard spray paint. You will end up wasting it and it won't go as far as the regular chalkboard paint will. I put four coats of the chalkboard paint on this and I used glossy white spray paint on the frame.

Thrift Store Find Makeover
The second I laid eyes on this seahorse figurine at Goodwill I knew I would use my handy dandy spray paint collection to make it fit my coastal house decor perfectly! Two coats of blue spray paint later and it's done! I love it!

Wii Bowling Tournament Trophies
I was browsing at Goodwill one day when I saw a bag of plastic bowling pins for $3. I knew I had a Wii Bowling tournament coming up and hadn't even thought of the trophies. I knew immediately what I was going to do with them.
Wii Bowling Trophies!!!!!!
Went to Wal-Mart and bought spray paint in Gold, Silver and Carmel Latte (supposed to look bronze)
Using Mod Podge I coated the head of the bowling pin and sprinkled glitter on it. The only bad thing about dealing with glitter is no matter what you use to adhere the glitter to whatever surface, some glitter will still fall off. So I used a gloss sealent spray to really make sure the glitter stays on the plastic bowling pin. I used black acrylic paint to draw the numbers on. DONE!
I sprayed the plastic bowling pins (2 coats).
