Moroccan Tile Inspired Outdoor End Table
Posted by DecoArt on May 25th 2017
Items Needed:
- Americana Decor Outdoor Living 8oz - Adirondack (ADOL16-36)
- Americana Decor Outdoor Living 8oz - Morning Glory (ADOL18-36)
- HomeRight Finish Max Sprayer
- Sandpaper
- Moroccan Tile Stencil
- Spray Adhesive (optional)
- Paint Brush (optional)
Instructions:
Gather your supplies.
If your end table is wood, lightly sand the surface for best paint adhesion. The top of my end table is a heavily textured metal tray so I poured in some resin to get a smooth surface for stenciling.
Ensure the end table is free of dust and debris and apply 2 coats of Americana Decor Outdoor Living paint in Adirondack (I used a paint sprayer to ensure a smooth application and to make it fast). Allow to dry for 24 hours.
If your stencil is not adhesive like the custom stencil I created for this project, lightly spray the back of the stencil with spray adhesive. Secure the stencil to the table top.
Lightly coat the end of a stencil brush with Americana Decor Outdoor Living in Morning Glory and tap off the majority of the paint onto a paper plate. The stencil brush should be almost dry to ensure that excess paint doesn’t bleed under the stencil. With a dabbing motion, apply paint over the stencil.
At first the paint will look speckled due to the brush being almost dry but the color will build nicely; with stenciling it’s better to do a couple of thin coats to avoid paint bleed. Carefully peel back the stencil while the paint is still wet.
To break up the color a little, I painted the outer edge of the tray top with Morning Glory.
My end table is now ready to house my favorite refreshment and book, just in time for patio season!
