This year we’ve been making and collecting decor in a neutral and metallic color scheme. I’ve seen spray painted animals all over pinterest, so I decided to try them out as simple ornaments. We followed this tutorial via Curbly to add hooks with a drill and then finished them with simple gold spray paint.
I love how they turned out and will definitely make more in the future!
Have you made any ornaments this year? xo. elsie

Thank you Elsie for this post!
I bought some silver and gold spray a few weeks ago and I`m still thinking for what I should use them.You gave me some great ideas!

I have made lots of Froebel stars. They can hang anywhere, in a tree as well as in the window. I think I´ll make some more, using thin felt. I wonder, if it works.
Beautiful idea!
These are so great! I have a good friend who is a champion dressage rider and I think she’ll love these!

LOVE this idea!!
I have a tree in our backyard that drops huge acorns I put some wire on them and hung them there so natural looking and go with any thing
I’ve been looking forward to this ever since the sneak peek! I think this is the best way to recycle old toys!
Wow so cute! I love metallic neutrals for holiday decor too. We haven’t done much decorating, since we always go to our parent’s for christmas.
Strive to Thrive,

I just love the idea of using the animals as ornaments, so cute! I used them to create little kid friendly metallic objects: http://www.thedesignitch.com/2012/11/spray-painted-toy-animals.html .
