Follow up question for painting and decorating outdoor furniture
+2
I had asked everyone about painting some outdoor chairs that are neutral in color with a plastic waffle weave seating. Ive painted them and will post the how-to pictures as soon as I finish the table that goes with it. I have a question about the table: if I decopage scrapbook paper onto the table top to add color and charm, is the mod podge humidity and temperature resistant? The table is on a covered porch, so it does not get wet. But the heat and humidity are fierce this time of year in Georgia. I appreciate your help and thanks again to all that helped me decide how to redo the chairs! :)

I would not use mod podge for outdoor use. It would be best to varnish the top

I know @All Things Heart and Home and @Vintage Charm Restored by Lori Young both posted projects using mod podge. They should be able to give you some good insight! :)

I'm with Diane, I think it would be safer to use a varnish suitable for garden furniture to finish it. Good luck and I look forward to seeing your post :-)

Marine spar varnish will hold up the best.
