We have all had those projects that have gone awry. I made this a couple of years ago.
(I must apologize for my pictures. I am a horrible photographer!) Anyway, when I made it, I thought, "This is cute!", but it never sold, never turned a head, and always walked past and I have had it for about 3 years!! I AM TIRED OF IT and to be honest, it's not that cute, sad really. I am in the long overdue and extremely long process of redoing my house on and extremely tight budget. I am currently finishing up my son's room which I will reveal this week. Next up is my kitchen that is in some serious need of updating and wallpaper removal. But, I kept thinking of this shutter planter thingy. I thought that it would be cute by my door for a mail drop and key holder thingy. So I took off the
flower box and my can of Watermelon
Krylon and went to work!

NOW it is a bright cheery cutie! I am going to add some hooks on the bottom to catch our keys. I put the original knob back on and it just did not do it justice. So off to Hobby Lobby I went with a 40% off coupon and snagged this pretty green glass knob. I love how it turned out. Now I am fighting the urge to redo my laundry room before my kitchen! MUST.RESIST.
