i wondered, who invented spray paint, because I love them! I googled it and this is what i found out.... you learn something new everyday! In 1949, Ed Seymour, the proprietor of a Sycamore, Ill., paint company, was in search of an easy way to demonstrate his aluminum coating for painting radiators. His wife suggested a makeshift spray gun, like those used for deodorizers. And so, in 1949, Seymour mixed paint and aerosol in a can with a spray head. As it turned out, compressing paint in a can made for a nice finish. I love Ed Seymour and a fun fact, I really know a guy named Ed Seymour!
I bought this ugly bunny for fifty cents at a thrift store and it's been sitting in my pile of things to do/fix/paint/restore/upcycle for about a year now. Why do I put some things off, especially when they are such a quick and easy project....tisk, tisk. I just painted him a nice glossy white and now this ceramic bunny looks like a cast iron bunny and sits happily on my shelf.
