Do you have wicker furniture that looks tired and old?
Want to give the wicker a refreshed new look.
Follow my easy steps and your wicker furniture will look like new
I bought this furniture last summer from listing on Craig’s List..
It was a sorry sight when I first saw it….
Dusty, dirty, & cat furry……chipped paint…..you get the picture
however, I knew it had potential to be a beauty
it was just begging me to take it home
make it feel loved again…….
SO I DID…..I didn’t know how yet
But I would find a way
First step is to remove all the dirt, grime and chipped paint
I used a power washer
You can also use a water hose and a stiff brush to scrub the wicker clean
Once cleaned you will need to let the wicker furniture dry for at least two days or longer if your weather is wet or humid.
It must be completely dry.
Next up is the paint, very important the type you use.

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
The wicker seating set I have was free, and I feel it can be brought back to at least, looking much better!! Your project advice is excellent, but I’m wondering if you’ve any ideas about repairing the legs on the chair and sofa??
Normal wear & tear gas loosened al lot of the wicker wrapped around these legs, and I have no idea hope to begin a DIY for this repair!! Any ideas or places I can look for the repair information???
Most appreciated and thank you in advance!!
