Springspiration

Inspired by spring's beautiful colors, I took these...
I turned these old beat up nesting tables...
from this...
to this...
I love the fun bright colors! I was going to do them all blue... but when I ran out of the periwinkle color, I went to the store to buy more and they didn't have it. When I saw the yellow I knew it would be perfect!
I stenciled the glass with a stencil and frosting spray paint! I love how they look now!
Hope you all had a wonderful weekend! 

Linking up at Debbie's Newbie Party and her awesome Color Partay!

    I love both colors, blue and yellow. I agree the nesting tables become more alive with the new paint. Wishing you more happiness on your next projects !

    I love that you used the second colour. Very cute. I'm keeping my eye out for an old set to spray paint. I love that they nest and you can easily put them to use in different parts of the backyard.
