Update Patio Furniture With Spray Paint
Today I’m sharing how I updated our patio chairs with spray paint.
If you’re scratching your head and thinking, wait a minute, “didn’t she show us this before,” you’re not crazy. I painted our other 4 chairs a few weeks ago and just did this other set of 3. Now they all are pretty with color.
The other chairs I did red, yellow, blue and green and these I wanted to do a little different.
Even my husband was surprised at how great they looked when I was done.
I went to Home Depot and used this Rust-Oleum 2X Ultra Cover and it took about 1 – 1 1/2 cans for each chair.
These were a yard sale find last year and I think they were $10 for the 3.
I washed them real good with soap and water and let dry. Then I just flipped them over and painted the underside and back first. Oh, make sure you really spread out your tarp or paint cloth because the over spray flies a little.
I just took my time spraying layers on and then would do some watering for a bit and come back and spray again. I probably did 3-4 light coats of paint.
Voila!! New patio chairs for us and I LOVE they way they turned out and it only cost me a few dollars.
