People said these posts are boring. This is the last one.  I promise. I had it written now for awhile, but I didn’t want to bore people too much.  Anyway… this is the last post.  Enjoy… or please try to.

Why?  Wicker/Reed is tough to get into all the little cracks.  While I planned to give it some of my actual paint, I figured this would be a way to fill in a few spots with black that wouldn’t get it otherwise.

Not perfect.. and I’ll still take a paint brush to it.  However, it will allow me to use a smaller amount of paint on the brush and avoid any type of clumping. 

After the spray paint, I got some higher quality stuff..

My dog also has one coat…

So, a few days later, I applied a second coat… AND VOILA!  The finished product:

From this… to this…

Not bad!  Hopefully, it lasts…
