Milk Cans

July 23, 2013 By stylishrevamp Leave a Comment

photo-2 copy   My Husband had a couple of milk cans in the garage that used to be his father’s.  I decided to reuse them at the Island home but first they needed a revamp.  I had to sand them down with my sanding block. Then I used Rust-Oleum primer and  painter’s touch in semi-gloss white. On the first milk can, I added black letters from Michaels.  On the second milk can I used Krylon classic gray for the stripe.  I might add a few more stripes but for the moment I am happy with what I have.  I like the gray stripe because it matches the gray lettering in my home sign.  I think I will place all of my reused items in the foyer of the house.  I will add more before and after pictures once I have everything back in the house and I can show you the complete transformation which should be really soon!

Well, that lasted about a day before I had to make changes.  I added the black stripe which I think ties it into the black lettering on the other milk can.  I think I am finished…for now!
