You may like it as is, but I like it so much better with a coat of cream paint 
topped with a bit of stain.
I realize that I've only showed quick little spray paint projects all week. That's what gives me a daily thrill! I'm out every day spray painting a little something. Every week my son has to move my "spray paint station" (a stool topped with scrap wood) before he mows the lawn.
It's not the prettiest lawn ornament but it works for me!

LOVE the finial's make-over!!!
Nice. Not only did I get to see your redo, but I also learned what those things are called. Finial...I'm commiting it to memory right now.
I like the finial better, too. What sort of stain did you use? Did you wipe it right off after applying it?

I am always amazed at your spray painting prowess. Everything looks better with your touch added to it!
Thank you for stopping by and leaving such a sweet comment! I have just now found you and am following. I see we have very similar taste in many things and I love your DIY projects! The finial turned out great!! Stop by anytime. :)
Hugs to you,

What a great bunch of projects! Love it.
Thanks for coming by and commenting! I've secretly been lurking your blog for a while, maybe I've left a comment once or twice, I don't remember, but I LOVE everything you do. Such a creative eye!
Love the finial ~ if only I could find such fun items.

Love how you added the stain, it gives it an extra punch! And your spray paint station made me laugh, I am constantly dragging something out onto the lawn to spraypaint, makes me think I need a more permanent spray paint station!
Great to find you, I'm now a follower!
Love that you have a spray painting semi-permanent spot. The finial looks fabulous now...good eye!!
Oh! Now I'm jealous! You have a "spray painting station". I have various colors of grass (yellow, purple and white this week) in the wilder area of my side garden. I've gotta get me one of your high-tech stations!
So true! I love me some spray paint! :)
Joy! I love this! I too am "seeing" the vision on spray painting.....it's fun to transform something right before your eyes. So glad I found your site!
LOVE LOVE LOVE Your home on the othe blog. Where did you find all those old suitcases stacked like that? Amazing! I too think a coat of color changes the yuckiest thrift store piece. I'm a follower!
Thanks for taking the time to stop by lil ole blog today. Your comment means so much. Take Care!!
NANCY-
Yes, I wipe off the stain right after I apply, leaving it in the crevices and any other spot that will give it character.
I am always in awe of your projects. Your blog is a daily must read for me. I am so delighted that you dropped by my little corner of the world today. Blessings to you!
Beautifully done!
I just love the little projects too..instant gratification. :0
It's always amazing to me how a little bit of paint can really transform something that's "okay" into something really fab :0)
Thank you so much for stopping by my blog and leaving such a sweet comment! I'm so glad to find you, I spied your blog on spray painted plastic keys - how clever! I've been wanting some old keys but your idea is a whole lot quicker and easier to do than waiting to find old ones *smiles* Love the finial make over, looks beautiful!
The finial looks a million times better! Great lawn ornament if you ask me! ;)
Definitely better cream!
I usually end up using the top of our garbage cans, or here lately, a piece of wood out by the burn pile.
The stain was an inspired touch!
I get such a kick out of spray paint too. My only problem is that I am down to one color and need to replenish my stash. My hubby wanted to know why everything is turning silver this week. LOL.
Holy Moly guacamole as my kids would say. What a beautiful blog!! Thanks for stopping by mine; I am so bookmarking you and then let the copying begin :)
Love all your inspiration!!! i'm trying to look through spray paint glasses and I found some treasures at the D.I recently and can't wait to paint them!!!
The finial looks great! I love your spray paint projects. Thanks for stopping by my blog and commenting on my dining room walls. I have added more pics and a tutorial.
I love this! I think I may need my own spray paint station!
Very nice! Love you spray paint table.
Great stuff....
i like the finial...

I love your blog and have stalked you forever. I am so sorry to hear about the theft. You truly are an inspiring woman and I admire your thriftyness and your creativeness. I love, love, love the finial! My girlfriend took me garage saleing for my first time last weekend and I loved it! I can't wait to start again. Most of that is because of your blog! I look forward to your posts! Thanks for all your inspiration.
