And so it begins

Today I shall spray paint my ornaments for Widget's advent calendar. I've got my box ready and our first step is the plastic primer. (My last attempt to spray paint plastic without primer was just... not good.)
Wish me luck! Out of respect for your FLs, I will simply update this post as the day progresses. You're welcome.
9:54am: First six primed. Rather cold outside. Not sure if nose is bothered by the smell or frozen.

The white did not like me much. I think I'd have an easier time if I could leave them closed but if I do that and then paint them, I won't be able to fill them with goodies. So, these just look... snowy. Or will once I glitter bomb them. :P

These needed a little extra time to dry before I popped them together.

The silver army worked out a lot better. So far.

Blue Ocean Breeze is super pretty. Not super Christmas-y, but pretty!
I'm about ready to start the Blue Ocean batch. That'll leave the dark green batch and the glitters. Currently I'm thinking that I'll do half of each color, except maybe the white, in glitter.
Annnnd I just bought Cass a present based solely on the name. (Well, it looks awesome as well, but the name is what sold it.)
