Makeovers with Duck Egg

I found this old birdhouse in the garage and decided to give it a makeover. It was made by a family member years ago. I believe the original color was green. At some point I painted it red.

 

If I were a bird I wouldn't want to live here.

 

Time for some serious curb appeal.

 

I love these little sample containers of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint.

For this project I chose Duck Egg.

 

 

I really like the rough condition of the wood.

The birdhouse is made of scrap lumber.

 



 

Nice details.

 



 

Much better!

 



 

For now the birdhouse is adding a little color to my (ugly) fence.

I bought this frame for less than $4 from a clearance end cap at Target.

 



While working on my birdhouse project I decided to use the Duck Egg on my "bargain" frame.

 

 



 

I printed and popped a recent daffodil photograph into the frame. Here it is with the tool boxes I painted for a previous blog post.
