Perfect Refreshment

This outdoor set was long overdue for a little refreshment.  
It’s amazing what a little Rustoleum glossy white paint can do.




With temps now above100 degrees, this chore was completed just in time.

    Honey,
    Oh my goodness, how your blog has grown!
    Thank you for your comment and visit!
    I picked up some cans of spray paint a couple of weeks ago to have on hand. I've already used them....red and white. Paint is such a fun and quick and beautiful transformation, isn't it?
