Thrift Store DIY: Gold Piggy Bank Decor
Upcycled Piggy Bank
Upcycle an old piggy bank with a bit of spray paint!
Materials
- A thrift store piggy bank (or an old one you already have!)
- Rose gold spray paint. (I used Krylon K02203 General Purpose Aerosol, 12-Ounce, Copper Metallic Finish.)
Instructions
Step 1: Wash the bank with soapy water and let it dry.
Step 2: Wipe down the bank down with rubbing alcohol and let it dry completely.
Step 3: Review the instructions on the back of your spray paint can of choice. As per most instructions, shake the can for 1 to 2 minutes before spray painting. (Make sure you spray the first few sprays on a newspaper or cardboard just to get the splotchy drips out before you spray your bank!) They spray in long even strokes.
