Paint Party Friday: spray paint!

I did something a little different for Paint Party Friday! We had 44cm snow, and I was inspired by a Facebook photo. I cannot abide people stealing photos and posting without permission, so I won't post it.
I thought it fun on a warmish day! I would have done more, but the next day was too cold and the paint cans froze on me. I liked the clean, crisp line I made in my snowblower run. (We did the driveway three times, just to keep on top of it all. Total 44 cm (17"), and my shoulders are still sore.



Daisy is an ever-present buddy, she helped me fill the bird feeders, doing 'bear' as she sought out the noise of the snowblower. Hubby, doing the driveway in the morning! She followed me to the shed.

You got more snow than we did, and now it is warming up with rain coming on the weekend.
Love your decorated snowbanks.

Jenn this is very creative and pretty! That was a lot of shovelling do you have a snowblower? It would help.

This is taking art to a whole new level.Have you thought of making ice candles in buckets? Coloured water, if you like that, freeze in different layers for rainbow effects, using very cold water when adding layers, leave a small tin( with small stones to weigh it down, in the very top layer, and when all is frozen, take out of the bucket, remove the tin, and put in your candle.I can see " YARD ART" in a big way at your place.

Very colourfully done!

The guys in my post from today operate a farm down in the Lanark area, so it's possible they show up elsewhere in Eastern Ontario from time to time.

It's a miracle! Spring flowers n the snow... I love it! But when it is so cold that the spray can freezes, that is TOO cold!
