Sparkly paper and paint


I found some sparkly paper I liked, so I used it on a box I found at the thrift store. I of course first painted the box...it was dark brown , now it's crackly beige and blue.
I also painted and covered a few cans I'd been saving ...these were used for a spaghetti dinner. Now they are paint brush, scissor and tool holders.
Oh and the desk they are on...well, I got it at Goodwill for five bucks. It has three levels for me to work on. Love it.
Happy crafting!

I love that paper. Haven't used mine yet! I love how the cans turned out. Make me want to save up some and alter them!
Isn't it amazing the things we can find at Goodwill and thrift shops?
