Silver Shamrocks!

Halloween is just around the corner and since I wasn’t exactly pleased with my original spooky display, I went back to the drawing board. I’m a collector and I always have a bunch of things sitting around, so I tried to pare it down some so that the scariest things could shine.

Sometimes you need a little extra oomph and thanks to 2 Japanese Maple branches and a can of spray paint, I got just that. Using the metallic silver spray paint, in about 5 minutes my branches were transformed. I can’t wait to try out the gold for Thanksgiving/Christmas decorations.

Don’t forget to send me porch pictures if you want to be included in this Saturday’s “Front Porch” post!
