Who spray painted the ikea frame for table numbers?!

Future Mrs M, on November 17, 2017 at 2:12 PM Posted in Do It Yourself 0 18

I have seen the classic 2 sided ikea frame used for table numbers and was curious what kind of spray paint you used and if it stayed on and did it look good?

Debating on this look, since it is affordable and large enough to read! I would be doing gold, if that helps!

    I used a metallic champagne pink spray paint. Looks so pretty.

    It's really very easy. Don't spray too close and keep it even! These were a little tricky because you have to get underneath the frame. My advice is start under the the rectangle where it meants the base so you don't have to move it with your hands and ruin it after. I made that mistake.

    I used these frames and spray painted them a pale pink. They def needed 2 coats. I got the paint from Michaels and just got the matte finish for plastic. It worked great.

    I did gold! These were mine. It was very easy. I'd agree with Melissa on the attachment. My finger hurt so bad after doing 30 of them, plus our other decor!

    I have these frames for table numbers too! I got inserts from amazon for $10-12. I spray painted the base of one with a metallic gold but I didn't like the way it turned out. I actually might just leave them white for the reception.
