DIY Faux Ceramic Utensil Holder

this idea

I’ve been thinking about starting a new mini series of little DIY projects – updating those ugly but practical every day items around your house! So I finally got my butt in gear and started by giving a thrifted, plain white utensil holder a faux ceramic makeover because that fits in a bit better with my style right now! It was so fun to try to work out how to do it and I love how it turned out. Plus it only cost a few dollars! 🙌

I tried mixing a little pepper in to the paint and in photos it looks a little dirty 😂 but in real life it honestly gives it a much nicer texture and tone like natural clay.

What you need:

• plain utensil holder
• spackling
• putty knife
• paint
• paint brush
