Furniture + Fusion = Fabulous


Yawn.



Blah beige chair.
You're kinda boring and stained.
And so is your twin.
I want new chairs, but that's not in the budget.
Guess you'll have to do, but you're so dull.

And you, little wicker table.
You're sun bleached and sad.

What am I gonna do with you?



Hmm, Krylon Fusion.
Sounds powerful.




Imagine the possibilities...




I spray both chairs and the table.





And for less than $30, I get a whole new set for our front porch.



Now, that's better.
Dontcha think?

  23. Oh, yes! I am obsessed spray paint, no doubt. I have a three season, southern exposure porch that has bleached and dried out my wicker pieces. I have been wanting to paint them black for some time...now I think I will. Thanks for the example, lovely job!
