Fabulous Finish: Wicker table Revamped; Guest Post
Remodelaholic’s Anonymous Link Party Go Here
Jane over at Finding Fabulous had this great little makeover, and I seriously love how it turned out. Go check out her blog. (she also has a Friday link party just FYI, but make sure you link up to Remodelaholic’s Anonymous before you go!! Pretty-Please) This is what Jane did:
This end table on our screened-in-porch was in serious need of a makeover!
Here’s the “after”, like any good ravamp brace yourself for the “before”.

Yup, were talkin’ D-R-A-B city!
I used Krylon Spray Paint in Ivy Leaf…love this color!
Here we’ve got a good coat of spraypaint. Such an improvement, but something’s missing. It needs some character!
I mixed a glaze with dark brown latex paint and water (equal parts). Just brushed it on, and wiped the excess off with a rag. Super easy!
Now this table has some color and character….love that!
Got some old wicker? Revamp it with paint and glaze and your old furniture will look great again!
I think that the glaze makes the piece,
don’t you think? It gives it so much character…
Now I just need to find someone’s cast off wicker furniture!!!

How many cans of the spray paint did the table use?
I am going to try doing my wicker in the ivy leaf, but not sure I under stand the glaze mix. Do I get a glaze to mix with the dark paint and water? Or is the glaze actually the dark paint and water? Sorry but I am new at this.
