The company recently unveiled Satin French Blue as its Spray
Paint Color of 2024. This color is quickly becoming the darling of
wedding events for its airy elegance and also offers a trending
complementary spray paint palette. These colors are beautiful
go-to’s to transform sign boards, easels, frames, gift card holders
and more.
“Satin French Blue offers endless possibilities for projects
that infuse spaces with color and joy,” said Lindee Katdare,
creative producer and in-house DIY expert at Rust-Oleum. “It
marries everything from the tradition, ‘Something old, something
new, something borrowed and something blue’ for an unforgettable
wedding experience.”
Custom crafts on the rise
A company survey of more than 150 brides and grooms showed that
they are increasingly turning to DIY wedding projects to save on
costs and add personalized touches to their festivities.
Top DIY projects for showers and weddings include:
- Invitations/Save the Dates
- Floral arrangements
- Decorations (centerpieces, signage)
- Guest favors and gifts
“DIY helps you save on costs but also creates priceless memories
that resonate for a lifetime,” said Katdare. “With color and
creativity, these touches can infuse a special sense of charm and
meaning without sacrificing style.”
A few of Katdare’s favorite transformations include using
Universal Aged Metallic Spray Paint in Vintage Gold to give wooden
or metal easels a classic look. She also likes playing up something
blue by turning champagne caddies into personalized bridesmaid
gifts or adding unique and unexpected pops of color to floral
centerpieces.
Making a statement with sapphire
As more people shift away from traditional white décor, the
Pinterest 2024 Wedding Report revealed searches for “blue wedding
rings” up 155%. But Katdare says rings shouldn’t be the only
showstopper in blue. She says Rust-Oleum’s Custom Spray 5-in-1 in
Satin Sapphire Blue is a great choice for painting chairs for an
eclectic wedding or bridal shower.
“Don’t be afraid to experiment with color. It can easily elevate
any occasion to add your vibes, your way,” said Katdare. “What I
love about Rust-Oleum’s new Custom Spray 5-in-1 is how it’s the
perfect go-to spray paint for newbies and experts. It packs five
ways to spray in one can. From larger surfaces with a wide fan or
even intricate and detailed areas with a low-output spray, it’s
confidence at your fingertips to help you get the job done
right.”
