Some of you gals expressed to me, that you don’t have anything to paint for the Summer paint project kick off party on Monday.
Well I think you do, if you look around and think outside the box….
here are just a few fun ideas, simple and you can find most around your house.
We all have a rock or two in our back yard… Paint your initial, or a house number, this is a really cute idea! Have an old chair that needs new life? Have some old trays or even plates around? Source: Country living
See you Monday for the Summer Paint Linky party, and blog party going on all week. Details |

Those are great idea's Debbie! There's a lady on Etsy who paints rocks into little English cottages and they're so cute! Also, another lady paints pinecones white and they look so pretty as bowl fillers:)

Some great ideas. As a stoic old grandad once said when his wife complained that a friend there age had taken to wearing MAKEUP! Little red paint even makes an old barn look better.

this sounds like a fun linky and I do have my patio furniture that I need to freshen up with paint. Hopefully I'll have time this weekend to paint it so I can join the party.

My sister used to paint rocks. she'd paint animals on them, landscapes, flowers, etc. My girls loved them when they were little. I have a few things to paint, so I'd better get busy!

We love to paint rocks at our house:)! We usually paint river rocks and then I fill the top of our potted houseplants and succulents with them. Kids love it, too!

Great ideas Debbie! My family went camping 2 summers ago and we painted rocks while there. Last summer I painted a few to go in my backyard also, I think I'll take pictures and put them up.
Thanks!

Oops I also wanted to add when my sisters and I were younger and went to visit my grandparents in the country we would paint rocks. Thank you for reminding me of a really great memory. (I'm going to pass it on to my sisters)
