Patio Furniture redo using Spray Paint by Amy & Chris

I wanted to some how spruce up our patio furniture and buying a new set was out of the question.  Using spray paint is an easy and inexpensive way to spruce anything from drab to fab! I forgot to take a picture of the cushions but your not missing anything, the cushions were tan and faded.


One coat of spray paint and new cushions!! and it looks great with our new shutter stand....





Now we both are excited to relax and enjoy our deck....

Materials:
8 cans of spray paint in Granite (Home Depot) $ 45
Cushions (Walmart) $ 120 I used a $100 rebate I recieved from a previous purchase so i only paid $20 out of pocket!
Teal Lantern (Target on sale) $5
Small green lantern (Target on sale) $2

Thanks for stopping by: Amy & Chris

    So glad you posted this! I was thinking about doing this to our furniture to bring it up to date. Did you have to prep it before you painted? And what kind of finish did you use for the paint?

    This turned out so well! Nice work. I love it when people can still see the beauty of an item they have and instead of buying new, they spruce it up! Great match on the cushions :)
    I have a little vintage bistro set on our front patio and will soon be giving it a coat of black spray paint to revive the wrought iron.
