I had picked up a cute little black wrought iron table and 2 chairs set knowing I wanted to paint it but not sure how. Initially we did the chairs blue and the table yellow and it was cute for a season but I wanted something else.....
Spray paint is my friend. It's magical the way it changes the look of things so quickly and easily.
Perfect for picnics in the woods and I love patriotic American colors so I left the chairs blue and painted the table red and white.
Because I have a large walk through Fairy Forest and was working on a new section it popped into my head the new section could have a mushroom theme and by adding white circles onto the top of the table it would look like a mushroom!
It was quite easy to do- spray paint the underneath red then stand the table upright and paint the top as well. Once dry on top it was time to add the mushroom spots. Cutting out a simple circle in scrap cardboard and spray painting the circles on top was easy.
I'll show how to make the mushrooms that line the Mushroom Nook area too if you click over to see that project. http://www.hometalk.com/diy/outdoor/garden/ea...>
I love the look and now our Fairy Forest has a cute little nook where we can sit and have a picnic or read a book and think of magical things...

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
Is this in your back yard. Very pretty. And quit.
I know Rustoleum is good but does it really stay on a powder coated table without peeling off? I'm afraid my grandson would have his cars rolling around on it and seems like it would scratch the paint away in places. Am I wrong? If so what is your secret? I do love the way you have things done.
