All I did was spray paint them with primer, then the bold burnt orange color I'd chosen, and finally with hi-gloss lacquer. They aren't as perfect looking as I'd imagined, but still soooo much improved.

Oh that tray table is so cute! I love the color painted it!

I would have gone with a stencil pattern of some sort in black over the burnt orange before applying the hi-gloss lacquer myself, but this works as well.
ReplyDeleteI thought about that, or even adhering a decorative, wipe-able place mat to the top, but decided to stick with the simple, original plan.
