Easy Weekend Project - Wicker & A Faux Doily Table

My wicker needed an update. For a cheap Pier 1 set purchased 15 years ago, its really held up well. Its been repainted several different colors, the last being a dark green. I was ready for something lighter so I chose a spray paint in a light sage, almost cream, color.

It takes MANY coats to go from a dark color to a light one (the chair could stll use another coat).
I also painted a little rustic side table and decorated the top with a faux doily design. After painting the table the light sage color, I painted a center square in white. Then using just a touch of spray adhesive, I positioned the paper doily. (I find vintage ones at yard sales all the time, but you can also get them at a cake decorating supply store) After a few passes with the sage spray paint , carefully lift off the paper and your done!
Have a great weekend, everyone!!!
