Prepare the garden furniture

Before you make your DIY mushroom table set, lightly sand surfaces to be painted and ensure your garden furniture is clean, dry, and free of dust or debris. Place the furniture onto a drop cloth or other protective surface cover to protect from overspray. Be sure to work in a well-ventilated area.

Shake the can well for at least 1 minute, then apply spray paint in smooth, even strokes. Allow the paint to dry for a few minutes before applying additional coats of spray paint for desired coverage.
