Repainted Ceramic Owl


I know I have told you before but...

I LOVE OWLS!

I just think they are the cutest! 

Now, I know that I am not the first one to do this, I have actually seen this done on several other blogs.  But he is so cute that I didn't think you would mind seeing another.

I found this little guy at the Dollar Store.


 He is kind of cute here but definitely needed the paint job.  This is what he looked like after 2 coats of acrylic paint.  I originally wanted to use spray paint but I couldn't find the color that I wanted so he got painted with a brush.  I am not too fond of the brush marks but couldn't get away from them so I am living with it.


I didn't buy him for a Halloween decoration, I intend to keep him up all year long,  but he does look really cute with my Halloween Decorations.

I got the cute Halloween Blocks from Summer Scraps who sells them on Etsy!
