bashful statues

I would hide my face too if I looked like this.  Can we say, Kitschy?!  (Maran, am I using this word properly?)

 White spray paint covered up those interesting colors, and then a good spray of stone-look textured spray paint gave them a "you belong in my flower garden" look.  Someone tell them they can uncover their faces now!

  2. Hi Kammy! Those are adorable. THanks for joining my spray paint party. Please add my link. Also I joined as a new friend and would love if you did the same. You know I have a newbie party every Monday. It has been awesome to see all the new gals make so many new connections. Hope you jump in sometime.

  3. Hi! I have a cherub that I bought awhile back with similar colors as your statues that I just have never used...does he look too "fleshy"?...I don't know...but anyway now after seeing your post, I think he is going to get a paint job.

  8. Very cute. They did look a little "plastic" in the before photos. It's amazing what a little paint can do for the kids.
