I just can’t get over how funny that was!Īnother funny story about this paint brush is that I changed my plan to make this just a few hours before my post was to go live, which was time sensitive, being the last post to wrap up the 2014 Decorating with Pictures series. I cam home to it open again and realized my can of spray paint was in the just the right spot to be knocked, spray the wall blue, and the door went back up. I was spraying the brush outside, had to leave, closed my garage door, it came back up, closed it again as I drove away. When I found my broom at Wal Mart, I snipped off the wire with wire cutters, cut the bristles at an angle, and spray painted it black! $5, not so bad! I put the handle of the broom inside my tube, and taped it all together.
I spray painted it blue, and had silver duct tape ready to wrap. I would think that wrapping paper tubes would do a similar job, two taped together. I figured the palette part would be easy enough, but how exactly was I going to make the brush? I first tried using a bunch of yarn, but that didn’t work out so well.įor the base of the paintbrush, I used a big brown tube that my husband brought home from work. I LOVE giant things (remember my giant silverware in my kitchen?) I even considered buying it (I had a moment of weakness) but the brush is no longer available. I’d always loved it, but never looked too closely at it.
I’d seen this floating around the internet for years, the Pottery Barn Paint Set. Then she started a sewing business which she called Rainbow Custom Creations. When I was on drill team in high school, she was the head seamstress making crazy costumes for 70+ girls on my team. I’m trying to be better (see this video of me using a power saw) and braver. Neither myself or my brothers really picked up that passion. She gives my husband tools for Christmas and gets all giddy that he loves the power tools as much as she does. She was the handy one around our home growing up, got her degree in Home Ec! She shadowed her dad in his wood shop as a young child, and learned the tricks of the trade. She definitely taught me that I can create or build whatever my mind dreams up. Since I can’t see her in person, (and because I neglected to mail a package a month ago to get to her by today) I thought this was the next best thing.
