Let's Copper it!

Upcycling using paint
At the moment, I'm prepping for an Art Studio makeover.
It's long overdue.
I have my leather couch and French coffee table in storage,
and  I'm gathering bits and pieces to pretty up the space.
I picked up this pottery vase at the 2nd hand shop for $3.
Upcycling using paint
Love the texture of it, but not the colour.
Because I am having a little crush on copper at the moment, 
there was no question what to do with it.
Let's copper it!
Oh my gosh let me loose with the spray paint!
At the same time I painted a plastic light shade too.
Upcycling using paint
For as much as I would love a chandelier in my studio,
Practicality and light requirements mean that it is not such a good idea.
 As a creative who often paints at night, I needed good lighting.
Upcycling using paint
The copper spray paint is fabulously easy to use
with instant coverage.
The brand I used is 'Plastikote'.
It sets hard, therefore no future flaking happens!

And the vase looks gorgeous in the studio... 
I can't wait for Spring when I can complete the Art Studio makeover!

Carpe Diem Quote.

Carpe Diem
Carpe Diem

The meaning of this is thought to be:
'Seize the day'.
After all, today will be yesterday before you know it.

This Latin saying originated from the Odes Book 1 by lyric poet Quintus Horatius Flaccus,
 (65 BC - 8 BC)

(Did you know 'Carpe Diem' is the most Googled!)
So I am going to:
Carpe Diem today and every other day.
Will you join me?
