Milk can

I've had this milk can for quite a long time. It was a bland brown with no lid.  I found a lid at an antique/junk store this summer so I decided to paint them with a high gloss black.  I painted the first letter of our last name and decided to display it next to our front porch.

I may build a little round garden in the yard and use it there but for now, it's sitting put. We have black shutters and white siding so it looks good with the colors.




I sprayed plenty of gloss also to protect the paint and lettering.

Love that milk can re-do:) I have one stored away somewhere! This makes me want to drag it out and get it all prettied up for Fall! Have a blessed day dear friend, HUGS!

The milk can looks great! I used to have one years ago, but don't remember whatever happened to it. Maybe it's still stored somewhere in the barn. I'll have to explore ;) Have a lovey week!
