Put your own flair on an entryway table with a touch of spray paint. Update the legs and hardware for a brand new look. Coordinate it with your existing home décor, or update your décor to match your new table! 

PREP: Make sure your table is clean and dry. Remove the hardware with a screwdriver. Tape off any areas you don't want to paint. We covered the top portion of the table. Place the table 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.  

PAINT: Start spraying the bottom half of the table in a steady back-and forth motion, slightly overlapping each stroke for best coverage. Apply two or more light coats a few minutes apart. Once that is drying, place your drawer pulls on a new drop cloth and paint them the same way. For best results, apply several light coats versus one heavy coat. 

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