Ugly Brown Canisters…

My husband, my brother and I went out to our storage unit one Sunday a few weeks ago to downsize some things. I found these flour/sugar canisters that I’d forgotten I had.  We got them as a gift at our wedding, but didn’t have room for them in our last apartment.  They were also an ugly brown color, so I was never the biggest fan.  I brought them back to the apartment and primed them.

Then painted them the color I wanted them (followed by a clear coat).

I let them dry overnight.  I did not paint the inside of these canisters, so I can still use them to hold things such as flour, sugar, and whatever I choose to put in the little one, but unfortunately I cannot wash these.  They will have to be wiped out with a wash cloth.  A small price to pay for not having to look at the ugly brown anymore, I suppose.

After they’re all finished.  I love them!  They look so good in my kitchen and really stand out!
