To refresh your old patio table like TikToker @hometalk, begin by taping off the parts of the table you don’t want to be painted. Then, use your desired color of spray paint (here, a stylish matte black) to coat the legs and base. Cut a circle of rattan the diameter of your tabletop, then use spray adhesive to stick it down, trimming and cleaning up the edges as needed. You’ll instantly have a rattan table with an elevated and expensive look with a very budget-friendly price tag.
While @hometalk chooses to create a very on-trend black-and-rattan piece, there are many other options for making this hack work for your outdoor space’s particular aesthetic. For example, you can choose any color and finish of spray paint you like, and any durable material for the top, including vinyl, waterproof contact paper, and other varieties of woven materials. Use it on mismatched tables to create the look of a cohesive set of outdoor furniture or vary the pattern or color of your tabletops to add pops of color and interest.
