Описание: This dining set which I brought with me from Santa Barbara was long overdue for a face lift. Time to grab the paints, sanding block & rags & spring into action. This is all about painting, protecting & revitalizing a much loved (& used!) patio set.

There’s just something about eating outdoors that I love. I’m especially tickled to have a patio right off my kitchen in my new home in the Sonoran Desert. We get a lot of sun here in Tucson & it shines even stronger in the warmer months. I really wanted to get this project done before spring rolled around.

This vintage patio set from the 1950’s was given to me by my mother who had gotten it from a friend when she lived in Sonoma, CA. It was originally pale yellow, then I painted it hunter green for my mom & now it’s brilliant blue. It was peeling in many spots & 7 years had passed since I last painted it.

I’ve found that anything with a lattice pattern takes more coats of paint because you loose a fair amount of it in the cut outs. In order to thoroughly coat the lattice, you need to spray up and down, back & forth & then slightly at an angle. It’s hard to explain but you’ll see me demonstrating this towards the end of the video.

I love this vintage set & plan to get many more years use out of it. The brilliant pop of blue on my patio is a striking contrast to the magenta/pink Bougainvillea Barbara Karst right next to it.

It’s time consuming to prep & paint, but the results are so worth it!

Enjoy your garden,
Nell
