Tweaking a Basket

When my mother found this basket at a recent yard sale we visited,  she could envision its potential. She said she'd prefer the leaves were a darker color, though, so I offered my help! 

After cleaning and wiping-down the basket, I pulled out the next best thing to spray paint...Rub n' Buff. I love it!


I have posted twice about this great product. Check out those little projects here and here and read a little bit about Rub n' Buff. 
Using the darker color I have (Spanish Copper), I went to work on giving the leaves some depth of color rather than their original gold.








I added some faux apples for display purposes. 

I always find it satisfying to tweak something, especially when it's simple and fast!



Have a blessed day!
