Most people think that when household items that we once loved get worn out, we can't fix them. Or we think that if we can fix them it will cost too much money. However, with just a little bit of spray paint every day items and even our favorite possessions can look incredible. You'll be amazed by the results!

Creative Ways You Can Use Spray Paint Include:

1. Containers
Revamp old tins, baskets, pots, and vases using a little spray paint. Spray the container with a coat or two and let it dry completely.

2. Jewelry
Give it new life by spraying it with a gold or silver spray paint. This painting method can be used on pendants, earrings, and other non-chain parts of jewelry that are losing their pizazz.

3. Old Furniture

The options are endless when it comes to redoing that sad-looking, rusty, worn piece of furniture you weren’t sure what to do with. A few even coats of spray paint will bring it back to decorative life!
4. Shoes
Why not paint them a new color with a few coats of spray paint? It will jazz them up and basically make your shoes look much newer, but with the comfort of a shoe you’ve already worn in. Make sure to wipe the outsides down and let them dry. Stuff the insides with some newspaper or paper towels, then spray with a few coats of spray paint.

5. Lamps
Take those lamps that just don’t match your decor style and spray paint the base. Remove the shade before painting the lamp base and be careful to avoid the metallic parts that lead up to the light bulb—cover these with painter’s tape. When the paint is dry, remove the painters tape and reattach the shade.

Wow! A little spray paint can go a long way for making older items look as good as new. You can use spray paint for those dozens of tins you have lying around or if that jewelry that you want to shine again. You can even use it for furniture that has seen better days. Once you spray paint these items, you might like them even better then you did before!
