“A popcorn bucket that costs $25?!?! Is it made of gold?!” And the TIE fighter’s future was born…

With only three steps, I went from hating this thing to loving it.

First I had to scrape off what little paint was on here. This flakes off very easily.

Next was prime time. There is an outdoor plastic primer I use for so many  crafts.

Then paint! All I had was gold but this would be great in any color. Again, use a plastic spray and do very light coats.

Ta da! Just pop the wings back on and done. This will hang from the ceiling over our desk.
