Decorative lanterns turn into something coordinated and beautiful with a little 2X Ultra Cover® spray paint. Add a hint of Marigold to your sunroom and let the sunshine in. 

Make sure your lanterns are clean and dry before painting.

A coat of 2X Ultra Cover Primer in White provides a great base for your color and gives you a longer lasting finish. Spray on the primer according to the directions on the can. After 20 minutes, start spraying Satin Marigold over the primer in several light coats for best coverage. Let the first coat dry for at least 20 minutes before applying a second.

Let all paint dry for an hour before placing the lanterns onto your console table or shelf.
