a cover-up

I have this eye-sore outside my front door. Isn't it lovely? It's old, ugly, and doesn't even work, so I wanted to cover it up.I fell in love with the arrangement on Susan's door from Between Naps on the Porch and thought, hey! I may just have the right stuff to do something similar. Here is what I'm going to work with: some pretty daisies from a yard sale this fall and a little tin holder that has been on top of my girls' bookcase for a long time. I got it forever ago at a yard sale and I wasn't quite sure what to do with it, so it's just been sitting there collecting dust. It is a weird, grayish, creamish color. I gave the tin a new coat of white spray paint, stuck the daisies in, added a ribbon, and here we go:

You can see the speaker behind the flowers if you look really closely, but I think it does the trick. So, a little touch of spring for the front~I'm thinking I could change it up for the seasons as well. For right now, I'm hooked on the daisies.
I'm participating in Julia's "hooked on party" today. Go see what everyone else is hooked on~

Have a wonderful weekend!

Oh, and P.S.~ Wendy, I used your idea with the food coloring at the bottom of the cereal on April Fools. When we added the milk, the kids thought I was magic making the color suddenly appear like that. Loved it~thanks!!
