Gold Dipped Kids' Chair

Ugly plastic kids' chairs. We all have them. You know the themed plastic chairs your kids all beg for at Target and Walmart? Nothing says beautiful like a spider-man chair on the front porch or back patio. Unfortunately, we had a pinky-mauve one that needed help!
This is the before of the chair, with just one light coat of Rust-oleum Universal on it. Next I put some painters tape up a couple inches on the leg.
Then I used some acrylic craft paint in gold to give the chair a dipped look.
My 5 year old loves this chair even more now!! We still have a red one that needs the Spray paint makeover treatment. So easy but such a transformation!
