This project is good inspiration for painting plastic to work well with your decor. The metal look is very trendy now and while giving the appearance of metal you have the ease of light weight ease. This could also be the inspiration top ain't other things, perhaps to resemble marble or stone or other designer looks. Thanks for sharing!
