Some Advice...

I got these pots at Lowes today on sale and wasn't a fan of the muddy brown and blue color of the ceramic. I thought I'd paint them a fall color, like bronze, and then decided to throw a little gold on them too. I'm really into gold lately, weird considering I've always hated it.




It seemed like a good idea, but now I'm questioning it.
I feel they are a little Ceaser's Palace-esque


Too gold? Should I just do all bronze? Should I bag it and paint them hot pink?
I'm sure Johnny would love that.


Side note, taking all three boys to Lowes by myself is an adventure. Note to self, you ARE as crazy as everyone thinks you are, and giving them metal rods to keep them entertained will ALWAYS result in an eye, head, and hand injury.

Oh Paige I love you (loved the side note) To be honest I don't really like the gold. I do agree with you I think they do look a little ceasears place. But I actully don't like gold. My mom ALWAYS tried to get me to wear gold jewelry and I never would. I think you should go with the bronze. Or maybe if you like the gold maybe you could paint it a gold that is not as shiny Maybe dull it up some how.Maybe Pinterest would help you with some ideas. (I love Pinterest)Good luck. And if all fails got with the pink ;)
