Thanks for sharing this fantastic link!
I love spray paint! Yesterdays yard sale find was a beautiful little vanity for my 6 y.o. daughter. A friend of mine had given me a 30 y.o. metal chair for her to use. You should have seen the poor cushion, tons of masking tape to attempt to keep it on and lots of rust. It’s so funny how people don’t realize that with a screwdriver, fabric, staple gun and a can of spray paint gives you an awesome new item.
OH thank you thank you! I have a bunch of cans of spray paint. 3 shelves, 2 picture frames, a Texas basket, a grapevine wreath. I want to paint them all but end up just staring at them and the spray paint. I get so nervous because I have never done this before. Thank you for posting this!!
Thanks so much for the feature, I’m just so flattered! So glad you enjoyed the article, I’ll be updating it even more as more issues arise. Hip hip hooray for spray paint!

Thanks! I had no idea that was posted… I’m off to study.
spray painted drawer pulls
I love the side table piece you did! I wanted to know what color you used for the drawer pulls. I can’t tell if it is in the gold or silver family, or maybe in between! I have just refinished some furniture and I would love to use this color for my drawer pulls. Thanks so much!
