Spring Door Decor.

Around this time last year, I had a beautiful spring pastel Easter wreath on my front door. Two little baby finches called it home for about a month. It was cute. Mom and dad got mad every time we opened the door, stood on our railing and screamed at us until we closed it. When I went to switch out wreaths, they had left quite a mess on the door with all their nest glue and poop. So, this year, I took my Easter wreath down - pronto - after waking up one night and remembering having to power wash my door last year. 

This year, I decided, I was not going to have a nest on my door. Especially since our house was on the market. From Fall and Christmas, I had painted a metal "F" to accent my holiday wreaths. You can see the Fall one here and the Christmas one here.

I got a little too crafty and decided to paint red glitter polka dots on the Christmas wreath. Word to the wise - it makes it hard to spray paint it again. So, I grabbed some paint remover. I went with a water based gel stripper. It was pretty easy. I was able to do a little paint job on my toes in the back yard while waiting on it to work.

Once, I scrapped off all of the paint with a putty knife, we were good to go again. I went with a super bright shade of green and a teal bow.  Super cute for the spring and no room for the little birdies.

I'll be putting my yellow wreath back up once the birds and the bees stop messing around.
