I've had several emails in the past few weeks about some white bowls that were in a picture in my Apothecary Spice Jar post. So - I thought I would post about them!
They started off like this:
I pulled out my trusty sand paper and gave them a good rub or two and then spray painted them white. Then I sprayed them with a clear top coat protectant to keep scratches to a minimum.
And here they are after:
Just as pretty as can be! I paid $2.72 for all three at Goodwill - I love me some Goodwill!

Much better! I love the milk glass cups you have as well!
I am having a little giveaway on my blog www.justforrachel.com so check it out!
I saw a bowl set just like this at my local thrift store a couple months ago. All I could do was look at them and think that someone out there in the blogging community could do something amazing with these bowls. You did! I wish you had posted this a couple months ago. They look great!
How pretty!
I love me some Goodwill, too! :)
i have never seen anything like these before. I am an avid thrifter-guess utah is lame-no wooden bowls!
It couldn't be the person looking-nah!!
I will be looking for these now-thanks for the inspiration!!!
Just awesome! I think I am off to Goodwill to see what more I can find!! Some trips are good and some not so much!!
So pretty! I love them! I'm still in awe of what a can a spray paint can do.
These are awesome!

Saw your post at Tatertots and Jello...these are just great!! I painted some birds I bought at the dollar store. Amazing how paint can transform something.

Hard to believe the before when you see the after. They look fantastic. I think maybe I'm going to have to give my Goodwill a second chance.
