Default Simple Keyboard Painting
Well I was bored yesterday and decided to paint my keyboard. I have this keyboard from Radioshack(don't care much for a gaming one, I would have been blown to bits already).



And I turned it to this.



I thought I was gonna mess up bad on this, but thankfully I didn't.

The cost of the keyboard? It was 10 dollars at the time I bought it.

Thanks guys for the comments. I loved how white and black look together so I had to make a theme for the keyboard.

You could use the spray paint to blackmail someone into giving you money. JK
