Let’s talk about potential for just a brief minute. We all have potential for greatness. You may have realized your true potential {good for you}, or maybe you are still trying to figure it out {welcome to the club}.
I hope in this one, precious gift we call life, I can dig deep inside and let my best self shine. How the heck am I going to do it? I’ll start by being a bright light for others, surrounding myself with friends and family who are only going to lift me up, stay really close with the good Man upstairs, and have the courage to live my best life. It’s not going to be easy, but nothing worthwhile ever is. And, this is most definitely worthwhile.
How do you realize your fullest potential?
I know, I know – somewhat deep for a Friday, but as I worked on this trash to treasure project, I thought about the word ‘potential’ and the importance of it in my own life. Before I give up on someone, something, and me, I need to just be in a place of love, and remember the potential that lies within all of us.
These antlers are the trash to treasure project I’m referring to. Originally part of a broken candle centerpiece, and in the trash pile, I knew they had potential. With a little paint and TLC, these antlers are now pretty in pink…and gold.
Here’s how I did it.
You’ll Need:
- Faux antlers
- Spray paint
- Gold leaf paint
- Flowers and greenery {I found mine at Pier1}
- Hot glue gun
Step 1: Remove old wax, dirt from the antlers.
Step 2: Spray paint the antlers heirloom white {paint from Home Depot}.
Step 3: Paint the tips gold.
Step 4: Hot glue flowers and greenery in place.
Right now, the DIY floral antlers are sitting pretty on Gabriella’s new desk, but they will be put to good use as a DIY floral antlers necklace display, or decor on the wall.
Cheers to re-purposing…and, of course living your best life.
