Gold Tone Thrifty Finds Repainted Cottage White


Hello,
I wanted to share a few tag sale finds 
that I repainted white.  
First is a set of vintage metal Homco wall fans.
These were previously gold tone.
I had originally planned to add vintage rhinestones to the fans
so after I painted them I put them in this metal picture easel (also originally gold tone)
so they wouldn't get scratched.

But for now I think they look so pretty just the way the are!
I paired them up with a metal teapot that I had previously 
painted white (originally gold tone too!) that I had decorated 
with ribbons, pearls and roses and I think they look great together!
I have them sitting on a glass cake plate on top of my hutch♥
These were all tag sale finds
and with only a few coats of white paint...
turned them into beautiful thrifty cottage style decor!.
Thank's for stopping by,
Beverly
