Seashells

Seashells Seashells painted in metallic colors are always beautiful. You can go for gold or copper-like but I think silver is always a good choice. The best product for painting shells silver is Krylon's Chrome, according to Becca. Give it a try!

Chair

Chair I love this. Not only did Suesan give this chair a metallic silver look, she also took this project a step further by giving the piece of furniture the antique treatment. What she did was spray paint the chair with silver. She made sure to apply several coats. Next she applied an antiquing glaze and then sealed the chair with furniture wax. The result: a beautifully faux-aged silver chair.

Wall

Wall If you think DIY silver projects are only comprised of small or furniture ideas, you are wrong. You can also give a section of your house a silver finishing. For example, you can cover one whole wall with aluminum foil for a touch of industrial and shimmery.
