Thanks Becky! The illustrations make it look easy enough but the surface area I'm painting isn't that large. I was thinking of painting those metal pieces I picked up for my glass lamp shades. Maybe I should just stick with a solid color, it might be difficult to get in around all those "loops".

I lucked out a bit when I bought this sun on clearance at Lowe's last fall. It was regularly $24.99 marked down 75%. Made the cost $6.25, I think. Anyway, it was a concrete gray. I think it's made of material similar to hypertufa. I hung it outside and within a month it turned this color. And I didn't have to do a thing. Usually, I can't get things like I want them if I try. But this did its own thing and came out perfectly. Go figure.

Love it!

Nice, Tee!

Love the sun Tee!

VA Debbie..... You gardens and art are a treat for the eyes...so pretty. Love the reclaimed items like the chairs too. My favorite is "Sebastian" with the hair!

Took me at least and hour to catch up on this thread....it is way past my bedtime now. Nite!

Lovely color Tee - and mother nature did it all for you

Thank you Sheila - one of these days every inch of my gardens will be filled with art!

Wow Tee, thank you Mother Nature! I need to be a better shopper, I never find deals at Lowes like that.

Thanks, all.

Lowe's usually has the 75% off sales in October, I think. I'm patiently waiting for this year's.

Yes, I purchased my arbor at the end at Lowes. Got a great price.

They make way for the Christmas decorations....lets all remember to post an ALERT when the sales begin!

Good idea, Becky.

This is not really my thing but for $5 from Lowe's, I hope a friend that has a Tiki bar on her patio will love it.

What a COOL sign!

I think it's darling...love the color!

I have a friend who would love it - she's got flip flops in every color!

Oh yeah ... she'll love it.

Hope she will.
