Repurposed Plant Stand and Updated Patio Furniture

Update a plant stand and turn it into a side table. You can use these steps to update a plant stand, and even your patio furniture.


First I washed the plant stand to clean off any dirt that was on it.


Then I scrubbed it with a Steel Wool Pad (mine came from the Dollar Tree) to remove any loose paint and rust.


After all the water had dried, I used Rustoleum Metallic Brilliant Metal Finish to paint the stand.


I let the paint dry 24 hours.


I found a glass cutting board at the Dollar Tree and knew it would fit perfect in the plant stand.


This is the top, and I'll probably buy a second cutting board for the bottom shelf.


Last fall, I refurbished all my yard furniture. Some of it was green, some of it was black, paint was chipping and places were starting to rust. I did all of these steps and am very pleased with the way it turned out. This picture is recent and all the furniture made it through the winter just fine.


I noticed that this poor rocker on the bottom left corner didn't have a table space to put a beverage or snack. That is when I remembered I had the plant stand.


Here is more of the furniture I fixed up last fall. The table was green, & chairs were black. Now they all match.


I'm looking forward to sitting here during all of these warm days ahead.
I'll be making this and more on my next Hometalk Facebook Live, Tuesday, March 14th at 7pm EST. Hope to see you there!

    I always enjoy watching your videos because you have really cool ideas but I never see a subscribe button and just run across you by chance when I'm reading my hometalk emails. On the above video you mentioned that your next video would be about rocks which I don't want to miss because I just started painting rocks and I'm always looking for new ideas. How can I subscribe?
