Giving dollar store nuctcrackers a vintage look

Hi!
I love nutcrackers. This year I decided to give them a new/vintage look, as I did not want them looking "new" and shiny. I bought cheap ones at Dollarama for one dollar each.
Used my beloved spray paint and lots of sanding.



Aren't they lovely? looking very old...:)

Scratches, imperfections, chipped patina, I like you:)
Sanding or no sanding...sanding !!
