pretty spring florals.

I don’t know about you, but I am ready for some pretty spring florals.

Especially if they’re on a toolbox (I bet you don’t hear that said very often!).

This is another toolbox that I brought home from the Habitat for Humanity ReStore.

Full disclosure, I actually finished this project before I left for Florida but I didn’t have time to photograph it to share with you guys.

Suffice to say, I gave this my usual prep treatment; I scrubbed it with Dawn, gave it a light scuff sanding, and followed that up with a coat of Dixie Belle’s Bonding Boss.

Next up I painted the inside in Dixie Belle’s Apricot, followed by a coat of their flat clear coat.

I followed that up with two coats of Dixie Belle’s Caviar on the outside.

I then added some florals from the I.O.D. Saint Germain transfer and the gold typography from the Queen’s Glory transfer from re.design with prima.

Once the florals were in place, I added a coat of Dixie Belle’s clear wax to protect them.

Now, you might be feeling a bit of déjà vu right now.  That’s because this is almost exactly the same as another toolbox that I painted back in October.

Except that one had an interior painted in Dixie Belle’s Cottage Door, and I did flip the florals upside down too.  That first one ended up selling at my fall occasional sale, so I never brought it into the shop.

Since I had more of the same transfers that I used on that first one, I decided to go ahead and recreate the look once more.

This time it did make it into the shop, so if any of you locals are in need of a toolbox be sure to head into Reclaiming Beautiful in Stillwater this weekend (the shop is open Thursday – Saturday).

I also brought in Keith’s toolbox

And this Botanist toolbox

Plus a small tackle box that I never bothered to share here on the blog.

So there are plenty of pretty spring floral toolboxes to choose from!

Leave a comment and let me know which one is your favorite.

  1. They all scream Spring! Beautifully 🥰. I think they are all my new favorites….but where your toolboxes are concerned, I’d never actually be able to choose just one. I love them all, too!

  2. These are all so pretty! What an awesome Easter basket these would make for some lucky someone. I can see them filled with pretty chocolate bunnies or some other fun bath and spa products!
