\u00a0It&#8217;s like $3.99 a can at Home Depot. \u00a0So for me&#8230;Rust-o-leum wins \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0943.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1988\" title=\"IMG_0943\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0943.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0944.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1994\" title=\"IMG_0944\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0944.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"222\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0945.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1989\" title=\"IMG_0945\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0945.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">I found some\u00a0sparkly\u00a0purple ones at Ross for 8 bucks and added them to the bunch.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0964.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1993\" title=\"IMG_0964\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0964.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"262\" height=\"333\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_09581.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1992\" title=\"IMG_0958\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_09581.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">I was struggling getting a good picture of them on the porch. \u00a0 Here is the end result, it looks even better in person. \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0952.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-medium wp-image-1991\" title=\"IMG_0952\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0952-500x333.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"500\" height=\"333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0952-500x333.jpg 500w, https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_0952.jpg 587w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">And here is sneak peak of the sticks I did for the mantel. \u00a0More of that coming tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_1006.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1995\" title=\"IMG_1006\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/IMG_1006.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"333\" height=\"500\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/button-1.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-1996\" title=\"button-1\" src=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/button-1.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"125\" height=\"125\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/button-1.png 125w, https:\/\/www.lynnspin.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2011\/10\/button-1-70x70.png 70w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 125px) 100vw, 125px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\">\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This time of year a lot of people are trimming up their trees and have a bunch of twigs and sticks leftover. \u00a0Well, I was lucky enough to find a friend that had a huge pile!
