Hello sweet friends-today’s an exciting day! I’m joining Behr Paint and my fellow Behr DIY Experts to bring you Behr Holiday Hues!
We’ve got a compilation of Holiday projects using Behr paint!
For my Holiday Hues project, I asked Mike to make some angel wings to go along with my theme for Christmas, I had no idea he would turn this project into something so amazing…
The theme I picked for this Christmas is the word: Behold …
…and angel wings represent that word like nothing else…
We drew the pattern and Mike cut galvanized steel in the shape of feathers, then to make them even more feather-like he hammered indentions in each one…
We distressed the wings to finish them…I’ve told you that my new favorite white paint is Behr MARQUEE Cameo White...don’t you think it’s perfect?
I knew the wings would make a bit of a statement hanging high on the fireplace but I didn’t expect them to have such an impact on me. Every time I see them, I get a powerful reminder to behold…to watch…to pause and think about the meaning behind the season…
You’ll find so much inspiration in these projects from the other Behr DIY Expert team members …

November 17, 2014 at 2:09 pmI cannot believe Mike MADE those- they look so intricate and so well done! Does he have a template of sorts that he used? I see these as being something that could stay in place for months to come…
The Cameo white! I can’t even begin to tell you how much I could accomplish with paint- thankful for the chances to win 🙂
