Before & After: Metal and Mud’s Patio Table

A glass-top patio table with four metal mesh chairs is shown on a stone patio in a grassy backyard. The table, labeled "before," has a white frame while the chairs are black. The tabletop displays condensation marks. This classic setup awaits its transformation for that perfect before & after moment.
Transform your old glass patio table into a stunning focal point with a makeover. Consider painting the frame a fresh coat of color, adding a mosaic design to the tabletop, or replacing the glass with a more durable and stylish material like tile or wood.

What a cute and easy little makeover from Metal and Mud! These white tables with the tempered glass are pretty ubiquitous and boring, but I love how with a coat of paint, and the addition of a cut to size piece of oilcloth (over the glass and set recessed under the metal edging of the table) the whole thing is much more interesting. 

Make a visit to Metal and Mud for more details and images.

A Metal and Mud square outdoor table with a patterned surface and a teal frame is accompanied by four matching metal chairs with mesh seats and backs. The Patio Table is placed on a patio with grass in the background. A small "after" label is in the bottom right corner.
Start by cleaning the surface with a glass cleaner. Then, apply a new coat of paint or stain—make sure you use Rustoleum or other metal paint for good adhesion and to seal in any damage from water. Don’t be afraid to go for a bright color for a fresh look. Finally, add a protective sealant to keep your table looking great for years to come.
