Ben’s sturdy lunchbox got a little makeover this week.
We started with avocado green (which was looking pretty tired):
I sprayed the top and ends dark blue and then stuck some stickers on the front like so:
Then ends (already painted dark blue) got the fancy tape treatment (as did the handle):
Then the whole thing go sprayed with four coats of baby blue (over the top of the stickers):
Peeling off the stickers took all of two minutes and we were left with the nice dark blue letters. Here is the finished product:
It probably needs a final clear coat to prevent the letters from getting too beat up. It’s rough being a toddler’s lunch box.
We also did the sticker treatment on the back with our phone number as both Ben and I have a tendency to misplace our possessions.
