Plastic patio chairs painted and decoupaged. Wanna see?
Comments (3)Thanks, Yugoslava and Funcolors! You've made my day. I hope this inspires others to tackle their old plastic furniture. If you do, please post pictures. Forgot to mention I drilled drainage holes in the seats. I think the newer ones drain better than my old ones did....See MoreBlack Deck Anyone?
Comments (3)I apologize, I have no useful photos for you - but a friend of mine has a house with a lot of black wood used for siding - it looks beautiful, but I believe it was done with a burning technique - I feel like paint may look a bit plastic unless you choose a high pigment brand. Maybe some kind of milk paint would work well, or a stain....See MorePlastic Adirondack Chairs - Who has 'em
Comments (18)Snookups, we got them all off of eBay from the same seller, a link to her eBay store is below. They are drop-shipped from the factory. The first order we placed during the winter got here in a week. The two we placed in spring took about 2 weeks (she said the factory gets pretty busy with orders in the spring). The material for the chairs is made of recycled soda bottles and milk jugs, so it's a nice green alternative :-) The hardware is all stainless steel too. Gorilla X, I can certainly understand the price issue. One of the problems we have here are extreme wind conditions with some regularity, even our wrought iron patio set gets displaced sometimes! We had to rule out lighter stuff because of that. Here is a link that might be useful: eBay polywood...See Moreplastic white chairs
Comments (6)I have used them on chairs and a small table with great results. I wish the local stores carried all of the colors that are offered online. I did write the Krylon people. They are not offering the brush on YET. But plans are in the works! I can not wait. I stenciled a recycling logo on my trash can but it bled through.Needs to be neatened up. I will share my idea, I always wondered why trash cans were so ugly that people had to build fences to hide them. Why not make them pretty?? I always wanted to paint my cans to look like flower pots. ( I don't have room for a fence) Or just paint them to look like the siding on my house to camouflage them. I sent this on to Rubbermaid, but no reply. If any of you can patent this, please remember me in your will... hee hee Lori...See Moremaddiemom6
