North Carolina State Fair Rain Barrel

This is the barrel I painted for the Rain Conservancy Program of Raleigh for the North Carolina State Fair. This was a really great opportunity for me to give back to my community. The barrel along with others were auctioned off and the proceeds were donated to the Conservancy Program of Raleigh. I had a good time painting this barrel...it was my first time painting so forgive me if it's not perfect! My barrel sold for the most money at $150. The barrel has a filter on the top and traps rain water when it rains so you can water your plants or whatever you want by hooking your hose up to the spiket at the bottom. But, I am looking forward to doing this again next year!
