We received these Adirondack chairs as a wedding gift from my husband's godparents. {they hand made them for us} My husband made the small table last summer for in between the chairs.
Before photos...
We bought Citristrip stripping gel to remove the stain. I did this by painting on the stripping gel, waiting 30 minutes for it to set and then SCRUBBING with all my might with a scrub brush to get it off. This took me about 2 1/2 hours to complete.
Photos after dark when I was finally done scrubbing & washing.
After letting them sit to dry for a day or so, it was time to PAINT! This was another long day, I may or may not have told my husband I was never going to paint furniture again! haha The easy part was the rolling, the hard part was using a tiny brush in between all the pieces of wood on the chair!
After photos...
YAY! They are done!
The furniture is back on the deck. I love how it turned out! It wasn't easy, but it was worth it! It definitely added color & fun to our front deck!
Paint Colors
Table: Dutch Boy Midnight Blue Exterior Paint (DC612)

This small flower pot arrangement is next to our front door. I found pots that we already had in our garage & planted my own flowers from the local nursery.
Welcome to our home! This is our front door.
The deck isn't completely done, but this quick little refresh was a good start! Someday, I want to add on a bigger entryway & a covered front porch. I am not sure how many YEARS it will be until that happens, so I will take baby steps for now!
Thanks for stopping by my Front Deck Refresh! Anyone tackling their deck or porch projects right now? I would LOVE to hear about it!
Have an amazing day & Choose Happy!
