Patio Furniture Redo . . .

I have several daughters who are not afraid of color. A couple of months ago one daughter chose a turquoise colored paint for me to use when I refinished a piece of furniture for her. Since then I've been dreaming in technicolor. The other day I had an idea as to how I should spice up some wrought iron patio furniture we've had for years. I've spray painted this furniture every few years to give it life, but the color it had been wearing the last few years was a pretty drab...


Here's the combination of colors I decided upon...

Not only did I select one really bright paint, 
but I decided on two just to kick it up a bit!
Turquoise & Lime Green...


I used Rusto-oleum Painter's Touch Ultra Cover Satin spray paint in "Lagoon" and "Eden." The beauty of spray painting wrought iron is you don't have to keep it the same color forever. Next year I can tone it down if I choose. Still every time I walk by my sliding glass door and glance out the window, I smile!
