Turn your boring living room furniture into something trendy and fun with a little bit of spray paint! Paint your tables and accessories the same color to put a cohesive look into your room. It'll look like you purchased all of your pieces together. 

Make sure your furniture and accessories are clean and dry. Tape off any areas you don't want to paint. We covered the bottom portion of the table legs.

Over a drop cloth, shake the spray can vigorously for one minute after the mixing ball begins to rattle. Slide off the red safety clip from the trigger. Start spraying your item in a steady back-and forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke. Keep the can the same distance from the surface and in motion while spraying.

Apply two or more light coats a few minutes apart. For best results, apply several light coats versus one heavy coat.

Allow the paint to dry thoroughly for approximately 1 hour before handling the frame and 24 hours before full use.
