Ingredients
Faux flower(s)
Spray paint
two colors
Cover for your work surface
Instructions
Cover your work surface, making sure it's flat.
Use the main spray paint color to completely cover the flower petals. Work slowly, adding several light coats and letting dry in-between.
Let dry 20 minutes and flip the flowers over. Repeat step 2.
Get any spots you've missed with the spray paint. Let the artificial flowers dry completely.
To add the accent, take your second color of spray paint and randomly spritz the petals until you're satisfied with the look.
Leave the flowers outside to fully dry and air out for at least 2 - 3 hours, not in the spray paint, before displaying.
