Oh, if only painted wood outdoors didn't require maintenance. Who am I kidding? What fun would that be? A little peeling paint is a great excuse to try out a new paint color!
I found this little side table several years ago at either TJ Maxx or HomeGoods. The wood stain needed some help after a few seasons outside on our patio in the woods, so I painted it blue, then found it a new home on the basement patio. It was looking a little ragged and it needed a little freshening up...
...so, I painted it Fern green by Rustoleum. I've loved this spray paint ever since using it on my Front Porch this past Spring.
Maybe one of these days I'll break down and paint the bench. What do you think?
I'm always amazed at how a coat of paint can change everything!
What needs painting at your house that you can't wait to get finished?

Love the green. Yes, paint is a good thing.
What an adorable table! The paint color is fantastic. Megan
That green is really pretty! I still need to do some touch up painting in the kitchen. I'm just not into it.
Makes me smile Pam. Love the color!
Love the green! And it coordinates perfectly with your beautiful bench and accessories! A very inviting spot, indeed! :)
The green is lovely with the hydrangeas. I bought two chairs this weekend for six dollars and I might paint them. I not into painting but for that price I cannot mess up much.
Green is always a perfect color! It is just happy! The table looks great! I am about to do a third coat on Jemma's bedroom. I must have gotten a funky can of paint because I can see roller marks after the second coat. I went to the store and told them and they gave me a free can of the top of the line Benjamin Moore! Hopefully that will do the trick!
Love the new color! Looks great with the hydrangeas.

Your cute little table looks great in its' new green! The benc would look good in paint, too. The green would be nice, although I'd also love it in white.
You know I love that color too. It's wonderful on your little table. I am in love with the mix of green and blue in your hydrangeas as well. Gorgeous porch and photos all around!
Love that color. Have been wanting to try it. Paired with your sisal vase and those hydrangea. Just lovely. Really. Thanks for sharing, liz
Great job ~ I love the green (and I'm not a fan of the color green but this is perfect for a porch) and think that the bench would look great that color too but also like it the way it is as well. A hard choice to make!
Beautiful hydrangeas~
I'm a visitor from Dedicated House and thanks for stopping by to visit my blog. :)
The green is very fresh and inviting on the table, and coordinates wonderfully with your hydrangeas.
That green table is ah-mazing! I love the color!!! The bench looks so lovely already, but I understand the need to paint everything...it's a problem for me for sure!

That has become a treasure from an ordinary little table. I love the green of the flowers be they real or not..Not I think...but such a good choice.
Such an inviting porch!
