A can of spray paint... A trunk full of Arkansas treasures!

I have had so much fun with a few flea market finds, or treasures as I prefer to call them.  On a recent 5 day trip to Little Rock Arkansas, I made a "few" purchases. We had a lot of fun going from small town to small town and meeting so many friendly people. I love Arkansas, it is a great place to relax and enjoy the beautiful ozark mountain scenery and small town shops.

I had been looking for a tray 

to sit on my living room ottoman!

When I found this one in a flea market in Sherwood, Arkansas

I knew it would work. I loved the detail, the size and the handles. And I knew I would be spray painting it white using

this Rust-o-leum American Accents 2x coverage paint. This paint covers quickly, dries evenly and the sprayer does not clog up.  I had to give the tray several coats to get the pure white that I wanted.

This paint transformed the tray, 

and candleholders from

a dark brown to a bright and cheery color!

A trunk full of flea market treasures!

I am happy with how it turned out,

and happy about the price that I paid for it.

I will always remember the young lady

and her little shop in Sherwood!

Thanks for coming by for a visit!
