Garden bench spray paint before and after. What a difference a little spray paint can make.
The Before Look, some of you liked it black.
But not for me! The after!
In the past two weeks I have bought about 10 cans, $2.97 a can, and I painted how many things….I will get back to you on that!
this bench took about 2 ½ cans.
Well worth the spray and effort.
And all these years later, here is the garden bench in a new location and of course a new color!

I'm currently taking a break from my container gardening so I thought I'd comment on your post. I love the bench yellow! I liked it black, but I bet it stands out more now! And, the yellow goes well with the blue accents on your porch, too. I'm going to do some painting today, too 🙂

Debbie, I love the yellow on that bench better than the black. Look how it just pops!! I have purple and white salvia I planted for the first time last year and it has come back strong and getting little buds.
Momma Fargo
I'm loving your creativity. And so fab chic…and you are a designer queen!
On the other hand…I am wondering if they have spray paint rehab for you. You aren't huffing the paint are you? Just kidding. Anyway…gold is the in color for huffing. LOL.

Linda
It's so charming, Debbie! Now you can really see it when you look at the yard- I'm inspired!
Mumsy
It's lovely in yellow, along with the rose, and purple salvia flowers.
You're very creative, Debbie!

I love it!!!! I knew it would be fabulous yellow!! The cushions are gorgeous and what a statement it makes! I have got to do something. I have slept all morning since company left, but it is too beautiful to not get out today! Debbie, that looks so great. I bet people just drive by your house and are dying to come in and see what the inside looks like!
Cathy
Love…love…love! The yellow is perfection! It jusy pops in your beautiful flower bed…I adore all of the color you use…it makes me happy:)!

Oh my gosh…I was one that was on the fence about changing the black but you have vision….I LOVE it yellow, again everything is so darn happy, just makes me want to fly clear across the U.S. to sit with you for coffee tomorrow morning!

Oh, I love bright colors in the yard!
I spray paint my outdoor "things" every year. Sometimes changing the color, sometimes not!
Have a wonderful weekend!

WOW!!!
So bright and so beautiful!!!!

Lady Banks looks lovely! So beautiful- your garden is one to vie for!
I like both black and yellow. Black had this antique look. Yellow looks regal. Very pretty! I'm going to watch out for all the fun stuff you do when i come back.
(Hugs)
Victoria
It really is a very pretty yellow, not gaudy or overpowering like some yellows can be. I just love that bench:)
stephanie
Love that bench!! Where did you get it? I'm looking for a bench and wanted something just like that! Great color, makes me smile!!
Aging Mommy
Oh I just love roses and the one in your photo is just beautiful. I so wish we lived somewhere that greenery would flourish instead of somewhere only desert plants do well! I love the yellow – so much more decadent than black, I think you have set a new trend!

I thought it was Lady Banks! I am loving, loving, loving the yellow you painted it!

Debbie, normally I'm a "black" fan but that last photo with the bench in it and the view of your yard is gorgeous! I guess I'm on Team Yellow now! 😉
Crystal
Looks great!! I'm really loving your Southern living stuff too. The view of the bench where you can see the front of your house is gorgeous. Blogland is so inspiring!! And you're the one that brought me over to the dark side!!! LOL
Heather @ Gerber Days
No way!! I'm OBSESSED! Love it love it. You have adorable style.
Michelle
Your bench came out great with the new yellow color! Wait til you see my sun spray painted with it. I love it. You're right, I found couple more things to paint, too. This can become quite addciting!!LOL!! The flowers are very pretty, purple is great with bench. I love roses, I had 13 different varieties in my last house. 🙂
Lori
I have a lady banks rose vine. It is on the downside. We get to enjoy it for about three weeks. The next heavy rain will clean it off of blooms i'm afraid. Love your color touches around your house. I am looking for an iron bench for out front.

I liked the bench black, but LOVE it yellow….great pop of color. I tend to go for the easy…black…but looking to snap out of it and add some color…your yellow and your blue is inspiring.

LOVE the yellow!
I've bought several cans of Krylon spray paint, and it drips ~ I've never had that trouble with any other brand. Anyone else have that problem with it?

Thanks everyone for stopping by…I did not have a problem at all with the Krylon paint…I did have to shake it a lot, and one can does not go as far as I would have liked it too…..but other than that I had no problem….
Allison
Love it! I have been debating on getting some yellow spray paint and painting SOMETHING. Not sure what yet but I have been wanting something fun like that. 2 years ago I sprayed my adirondack chairs a navy blue but maybe they need a change and yellow should be it?! hmmmm
Nicole R.J.
The bench looks so much cuter in yellow, nice redo!

I am IN LOVE with that bench. The color is amazing!! Wow, I've got to pick up a can and add some pizzaz to my yard.
Thank you so much for linking to Woo Hoo! Wednesday and joining the party. Grab a glass of wine and enjoy!

Loving the bench and loving the color!
Tammy@ A Doctor in the House
oohhh..that yellow is divine. Love the brightness it adds. You have lots of flowers in bloom to be one who doesn't claim to have a green thumb. Beautiful yard!
Miss Mustard Seed
I love this chair in the yellow. It was lost in it's surroundings when it was black. Now, it stands out and has a lot more personality. Great choice!
Debbie
This looks great yellow! and the cushion is perfect! The purple salvia and yellow bench look so nice together.

I like the "after" better. And I am not usually a fan of yellow & I love black. But the bright color really makes it pop out in your yard.
