Lessons Learned

You might recognize these chairs from my header.

They sit on our front porch.  There are actually 3 of the rockers.  And, up to this point I have been OK with their weathered look.


But, the chairs have gone from having a weathered look to being weathered.  It's time for some fresh paint.


I bought a can of white outdoor spraypaint to paint the chairs.  My husband told me that the spray paint would be not be the best or easiest way to paint the chairs.  And, he suggested a different method.


But, I had the spray paint already and was not to be deterred.  


So, a couple days ago I pulled one of the chairs out onto the grass, sanded it down (a little), and started going to town with the spray paint.  


Here is what I learned....


1.  One can of spray paint isn't enough to cover even one chair.


2.  Spraypaint is a slow & aggravating way to paint furniture.


3.  Sometimes my husband is right.


I guess it's Plan B (aka my husband's method) for me.
