Can you spray paint furniture? Well, yes, you can. Spray paint the whole thing, just a drawer, paint a stripe, or stencil a design.
Spray painting furniture and home decor is the easiest and biggest DIY transformation of all! The before-and-after comparisons are almost unbelievable. An old, outdated piece can look brand new in just minutes!
If you haven’t painted anything before, spray paint is a good way to start. Select a small furniture piece or home decor accessory today. Decide on a color and buy your spray paint tomorrow. Paint the piece the next day and have it back in place on the same day. Small steps.
Spray paint almost any type of furniture or home decor accessory — including wood, metal, plastic, wicker, laminate, and even fabric (with special fabric paints).
Spray paint is perfect for:
- Dressers, nightstands, and tables
- Chairs and barstools
- Lamps, mirror frames, and picture frames
- Outdoor patio furniture
- Accent décor (baskets, planters, etc.)
What to Spray Paint –
- The entire piece (like a dresser or chair frame)
- Hardware Only knobs, pulls, handles — but remove them first)
- Legs or base for a two-tone look
- Trim or detailing for accent contrast
- Shelves or drawer fronts for a pop of color
- Stripes, stencils, other designs
Tips for Spray Painting Furniture
- Always spray in a well-ventilated area, outdoors, or in a special tent.
- Shake the can during the painting process to keep the paint mixed.
- Test spray paint on cardboard first for color and paint flow.
- Avoid painting on humid or windy days (it can cause bubbling or uneven texture).
- For a super-smooth finish, lightly sand between coats.
These makeovers are for inspiration. Select your favorite paint color and personalize your furniture today. I think metallic silver and metallic gold combinations are a match made in heaven. It only took minutes to spray paint the drawer and the pull. A work of art. Metallic silver with brown polka dots. Polka dots were the latest trend when I painted this table years ago. I still like polka dots. Spray painting chairs is much easier than brush painting. Dresss them up with easily removed decals. Have you ever spray painted a stencil instead of dabbing it on? It can be done. My favorite fabric for recovering chair or bench seats is an industrial-strength drop cloth. Changing the fabric on a stool seat and painting the base is an over-the-top transformation. The piece is totally changed. Some furniture needs a little work before it can be painted. Basic repairs are easy. I usually spray paint chairs because they are challenging to paint with a brush. Simple thin metal chairs like this one are best spray-painted. Bamboo pieces with all the small details are a perfect choice for spray paint. Furniture with shelves and a lot of cut-out details is a pain when it comes to makeovers. This table was spray-painted in a couple of hours and put back in place! Choose outdoor spray paint when painting lawn furniture. The paint will last for years. Dress up a chest of drawers with a gold metallic stripe. Very classy and easy. Mark the stripe with painter's tape and cover the surrounding area. Rustoleum Heirloom satin white is my go-to white paint. It isn't too white, just right. This is my first spray paint furniture project. Metallic spray paints can be used in formal and casual settings. If you select a color and it isn't exactly what you wanted, repainting with spray paint is easy. Furniture You Can Spray Paint
