For the birds...

Before...Cheap porcelain birds purchased in a lot of odds and ends at an estate sale.


After...

A coat of spray paint and new life! They now reside on my mantle and mimic the current trend of neutral colored animal figures that can be purchased for lots of $$ at some of the various decorating haunts.




Excuse the overexposed photos. I took them in a rush before leaving for work.
