A Lantern Make Over And Our Back Porch

Hello and Happy Weekend Everyone. I've been feeling the spring fever lately! Last Sunday I pressure-washed our back yard patios, and now I am working on making it cozy back there. The first step is done.
I had these 2 huge brown Lanterns that I grew tired of, so I spray painted them a light grey. After they dried I rubbed some white acrylic paint on them to give them a bit of a white wash look.
his area of the deck is covered, so I can leave the decorations out there all season
All my favorite things....pillows, a basket, lanterns, an old crate and a galvanized bucket!!!!
I have more plans for this area, such as an outdoor rug, and hanging lanterns to pull it all together. Will keep you updated!
here is a little peek of what the lanterns looked like before, I just covered the glass with painters tape and spray painted away
Here is a "Selfie" with our Tortoise Willie
he approves of the newly decorated deck
and not to forget our Bugsy, this large barrel is his favorite summer hang out spot!
Enjoyed the project?
