Hello friends. I hope you’ve been keeping well. I’m excited to share with you a little peek into the backyard this year and our outdoor sitting area and restored bench and chairs.
A couple of years ago, I got this bamboo bench from IKEA and let’s just say it got a little weathered. But with the miracle of spray paint, this bench looks better than ever.
Here’s a look at the before….
You can see it was in pretty bad shape.ย
But look at her now….
I’m in love with it !ย
I prepped the bench by giving it a good clean and getting any dirt off. I then gave it a light sanding, however,
with this Krylon Fusion All-In-One spray paint, you don’t have to sand or prime but I did have to remove some splinters from the top part of the bench and cut some of the braiding around the border.
I used Satin Black which I love because it gives it a slight sheen but there are a ton of other colors and finishes to choose from.
Depending of your location the labels might look different. Here is what the label in the US looks like. ๐
Iโm in Canada, and this is what the labels on the cans look like.
I’m always amazed at the power of spray paint and how easy it was to restore a piece that otherwise, I was going to give up on. I’m looking forward to having this bench and not worrying about peeling as this spray paint has a no peel-guarantee*.
ย Here’s another look at the before and after….
I also spray painted the old chairs and I can’t decide which set up I like better.
Here’s the set up with the chairs now painted white. I think it looks a lot better in person but you get the idea.
This is what the chairs looked like before. I have to be honest, these chairs were a little harder to paint as they have so many little nooks and crannies.
I still don’t think I got into all of them. But I like the refreshed look.
Here’s the after. I do like the contrast between the white and the black. What do you think?
Side by side. Which one do you like best?
Let me know in the comments ๐
Thank you so much for stopping by today.
much love,

The paint certainly improved the look of your bench, chairs and accessories – you were really busy with that little can of paint. ๐
I love the look of the bench with the plants.

Big improvement on both. I love the contrast of the white chairs with the black background.
Wow! Your refurbished bench and chairs, together with your outside seating area, look simply gorgeous! It’s surprising how simple spray paint and a worn bamboo bench resulted in something even better. The bench’s vivid and modern appearance is quite appealing and gives your backyard a wonderful finishing touch.

This year has been particularly difficult for many people and for me as well. So I wanted to relax for Christmas. That’s why I flew to Glasgow to rest. I rented a car and visited the Scottish Opera, Scottish Ballet and the National Theater of Scotland, as well as famous museums and a vibrant music scene. https://rental24.co.uk/uk/glasgow-airport-international
