Hi there!  I’m sharing a fun DIY that I posted at Over the Big Moon last month.  Our rental kitchen has been going through a slow transformation over the last six months and is finally a space that I can enjoy functionally and esthetically.   You made over our kitchen cabinets with a renter friendly DIY,  our IKEA glass canisters got a facelift with copper and chalk paint, and I created some beautiful fridge magnets out of an unexpected item! 

I’ve been using an old coke bottle crate that my mom gave me to hold our herbs and spices.  It was finally time to make the seasoning jars looks pretty too.

What you need:

DecoBros 12 Spice Bottles w/ label Set

Chalkboard paint and brush

Copper Spray Paint

Clear coat finish (polyurethane)

Chalk marker

How to:

Paint the top of your jar lids with two coats of chalk paint, letting them dry 30 minutes in between coats.  No need to worry about clean lines because we are only “saving” a circle of chalk paint.

Let the last coat dry overnight.

Place the round stickers that came with the jars on top of the lids.  Spray paint 2-3 light coats of copper spray paint allowing 30 minutes of drying time in between.  Seal with a coat of clear paint. Let dry for a hour.

Carefully remove the round stickers.

Use a small brush for any touchups.   (Just dab on a little paint.)

Write the seasoning names with a chalk marker.   (You can also season the chalkboard paint by rubbing on and wiping off regular chalk.) 

I love how the copper adds warmth and a little shine to our white kitchen.

Thanks for stopping by today!!
