So again, I white-washed it.
And dry-brushed it with blue.

My obsession with little birdies continues... if you missed part one, click here. The other little birdie I found at the Dollar Store was not a part of my color-scheme at all.

Oh I LOVE those little birds! I cleaned our Dollar Tree OUT of those last year for my wedding place settings! They're SO CUTE! I love how you painted it...I have about 7,000 left so I'll have to try that on at least one...lol.
ReplyDeleteLooks so much better and more spring like too. Thanks for sharing with Made it Monday! Jules
ReplyDeleteI love them, nice job :).
ReplyDeleteAren't those dollar store birds the best? I really like the addition of the blue over the white. Gives it more dimension.

Wow, my dollar store needs to get on the bird-wagon! This is the second adorable birds from the dollar store post I've read this week, and I love 'em!
ReplyDeleteI love that your obsession continues! So cute!
ReplyDeleteI have the same birdie tealight holders from Dollar Tree! I love what you did with yours!
ReplyDeleteThese turned out super cute with your finish technique. I have a few of these but can't seem to get the votive holder out?!? Would love to have you stop by the Sunday Showcase Party if you get a chance ~ Hope you are enjoying your weekend! Off to check out the birdhouse...
ReplyDeleteI just purchased a vintage wooden birdhouse and spray painted it white...but I have been thinking about what to put on the bottom of it? I loved your idea on the moss. I had purchased some from The Dollar Tree and have just been holding on to it for something just like this! Thanks :) (love your blog btw)
ReplyDeleteThose are so cute! Thanks so much for posting this on Favorite Things Friday!
ReplyDeleteThat turned out so cute. I love the hint of blue/white. So darling! Thanks for sharing at 'Look at me, I'm SO Crafty!' at Fun to Craft.
ReplyDeleteBirds are just fun, aren't they--and so much of a variety!
ReplyDeleteI actually picked up a bird just like this one today at the dollar store. My plan was to whitewash him like yours, but the glass is glued in! Now what? :)
