Patio Table Makeover, on the Cheap

I would say you have a very good table there to start off with in the first place. I just got a new end table that was wooden for my front porch that went in between my rocking chairs. The end table needed some work as i picked it up from someone else's trash. It works and i painted it the same color as my front door so there is some matching going on at least. The one thing i can say to do is go get a bottle of rust oleum spray paint color you like and at least sand down the areas on the table were the rust is before spray painting it. It probably will work best if you clean it too and give it a day before painting it. Hope this helps you out some. I know at work guys use rust oleum on alot of projects they do that are on the water or houses that are close to the water. I live in south florida so alot of houses are on the water, so i suggest rust oleum will hold up best for you. Usually the paint can be found at any home repair stores or in the home repair section in walmart or kmart. Enjoy the project and hope it turns out well.

The mis-matched chairs can be fun to redo. Depending on what kind of chairs that you can reupholster them with different vibrant fabrics. If you want to make them a little more as a set you can use the same fabric even if they are different in design. The possibilities are endless.

It's funny you avoid going outside; our house was such a mess I used any excuse to go outside (the garden was the reason we bought the house in the first place!)
