Home Decor DIY | Hand Painted Bistro Set

I am seriously in LOVE w/ this DIY project & so excited to finally be sharing it. Safe to say it’s definitely top 5 faves, ehhhh… probably more like top 3. Yup, top 3 (& I’ve done quite a few projects in my time).

When I moved to my new place, I really wanted a bistro set on my patio. I found one, but it was seriously boring. Brown wood… my least favorite material ever. Puke. It needed a make-over, but I knew it was gonna be a big job & I was being lazy/procrastinating. So the ugly table sat,and sat, & sat some more– all while never really being sat in. Poor drab table.

When my ladies at Forever 21 came to me & said they wanted to collab on a home decor do-it-yourself project, I knew this was my time to make my sad table happy. I wanted something bright, welcoming, & different from anything else.

The result was that & so so so much more.

Now my table is sat in on the daily, or even twice daily. I like to have my morning coffee out there while I check my emails/Instagram/Facebook/Twitter/blog, my boyfriend & I sit at it for hours on the weekends sipping Coronas (lights for me) & playing chess, it’s also the perfect little table for an outdoor romantic dinner date. Basically, I am obsessed.
