I've had this Concrete stone cast iron decorative finial for a while now. Discovered it a while back on one of my treasure hunting days. From the moment I saw it I thought it would really be nice painted to look like concrete rather than this kinda dreary brown color. I found this picture of a mirror and thought it could be my inspiration for the color I was going for. I've discovered that painting is my therapy.
I keep projects like this around so when I feel the need to paint, I can do so. I dug this treasure out of my storage unit, dusted it off and got busy. I always find myself in a good mood when I do projects like this. I put my ipod on and it was such good medicine.
Here's the end result.
