I've had this vase set for years and it's been stashed away since we've been in our house. I love how it turned out and can't wait to fill it with my zinnias and cosmos that should be blooming soon!
Here's the before:
After a little of this...
And a few of these...
I now have this!

Well congratulations Miss Emily...you are now official, I will allow you in my Beta Shmata Gamma club now! Looks great....I always like your photo skills too.
That is so pretty! I wish I had more things to spray paint around my house.
Visiting form the Keep It Simple Party. You did a lovely job. I am so jealous -- can't seem to find ORB! My Home Depot on Cape Cod is a "boutique" store with limited products, and they acted like I was insane when I insisted that I only wanted oil rubbed bronze. They suggested I try the bigger stores...over the Cape Cod bridge and an hour away. I'll make the trip at some point, I'm sure!
A big"wave" from the Cape,

ORB or any color is addictive. I have been spray painting, too. I love your single flower vases and what wonderful photos.
Emily I almost forgot to mention....how could I forget? I have auditioned for the Oprah new show...the video is up on my blog now...and if you like it, you can vote for me:) IF Not poo poo on you...no just kidding...I won't know either way now will it? Enjoy!
I just used that Metallic Oil Rubbed Bronze on a project.. it's awesome stuff! Gotta love spray paint!
Spray paint is the best DIY accessory. And I love how that vase turned out!
Great job! I need to get busy on my project list! You are inspiring!
Have a great week!
So very pretty! I believe you've seen my ORB spray painted drawer handles (used to be gaudy brass). What a difference it makes!
Was it worth the wait? I just love ORB spray paint. The way you arranged the flowers so simply is great. Less is definitely more.

Thanks for visiting our little blog!
Not only are your picture incredible.. But what you are taking pictures of are incredible too!
These vases are just so stunning!
I cannot wait to look around you blog for lots of inspiration!
Beautiful job...I've never tried that kind of spray... I'll have to give it a shot!
How wonderful :), I have NOT used ORB yet, I looked for it Sat. This is so pretty.
These tubes are gorgeous!
WOW! I love how that turned out! So pretty!
Now this is a gorgeous vase!
I am a newbie spray painter too... keep asking myself why didn't I use this stuff a long time ago!? It makes such a difference!
Your project turned out great!
I stumble to your blog when I was at BNOP ;). Great photos and very inspiring! I'm a new follower.
Oooh how pretty! I'm not in the club yet - haha. But you've inspired me - your vase is adorable. LOVE!
Well done! it turned out great.
This caught my eye on Anything Related because I literally just came home with my first ever can of ORB so I'll be joining the club some time this week. Your project turned out great.
I love using hosta leaves in arrangements. Your a true blogger now. Welcome the the club.
You will become addicted. It's a fact. I just sprayed 3 things today! Welcome to ORB Anonymous.
I must be way out of the blogland loop I have not heard of this miracle product until now~ so thank you for bringing me up to speed!
Your darling vases in the newly painted and spiffy holder will be perfect for all of summers single blooms.
It was so lovely to visit your beautiful blog!

ORB does make anything look great... those vases are so cute too.
Love it. Particularly like how you chose to use the hosta and leaves. Great piece!
I love the simplicity so it allows the flowers to be the showcase. Wonderful! Following thru SYSThursday. Pam @ Sallygoodin
I love the simple look of one flower in the vases. Looks like summer.
Love the vases...what a great display piece. The ORB spray paint is new to me...looks like something I need to try on our front porch lanterns. Thanks for sharing.
Those vases are so cute! Where did you get them? And your yard looks fantastic. Trying to get mine looking something close to that. ;)

THis is a great Before and After Emily, I can never tire of this awesome project. Thanks for joining in...may be a little quiet for my first one:)
I am smitten with your vases. Well done. ~olive
I love that ORB. I'm also jealous of your tomatoes. I still only have teeny tiny green ones on my plants.
I featured you this week!

Thanks for sharing your project!!!
This is so pretty. We also have those wildflowers. Do you know what they are called? I have often wondered.
Your backyard looks so pretty. I love single flower vases.
