It’s funny once you really get into the blogging world when you see which one of your posts gets the most traffic onto your blog. When I first started blogging, I was just happy if one of my friends read it:) And I still am- please still keep reading my friends!! But now that I have been around for a little while, I understand a bit more about demographics (Hi New Zealand peeps).
The following was one of my very first posts- so many of you will not have ever seen it- unless you are a true, loyal follower and you have read every single one of my amazing posts…
so yeah, most of you haven’t see it it, so here is a flashback to my biggest hit blogpost! Enjoy the ceiling fan excitement!!
Ok- so how many of you have this….
Go ahead… just admit it! It’s Brassy and it’s just eating at you every time you look up at it! OK, maybe that is just me- but it has been bugging me for the last four years we have lived in this house- but it works… so the moola to replace it was hard to justify.
Sooooo…. what to do? take a baseball bat to it Paint it! Why not? ok, what paint… well how about some craft paint and some spray paint and whatever else I feel like using because why the heck not?! can’t look worse in my mind.
So I started by getting up there to see what that fan was all about- it’s not that hard people- it is just a couple screws holding each blade on- so- off the blades came! and then a couple more screws and off the metal brackets off of the blades came!
Took those pieces outside and found my fave spray paint… Rust-oleum’s ORB (Oil Rubbed Bronze) and a glossy white I had to touch up the blades
a couple quick coats…
Hello! Fantastic job! Where did you find the non-spray paint metallic paint? I can’t take down my fan, but I would really like to paint over the ugly bright bronze that’s there now!
Thanks!
Thanks Julia! I think both Hobby Lobby and or Michaels would have it- just look near the craft and spray paints- good luck!
