Materials Needed
- Montana GOLD Line spray paints in pink and blue (multiple cans may be required)
- Objects to paint: planters, lanterns, a watering can, and balcony furniture (either store-bought or upcycled)

Step-by-Step Guide
Prepare Your Workspace:
Ensure your workspace is well-ventilated, clean, dry, and free of any dust or debris. This will help achieve a smooth finish on your painted items.
Apply Metal Primer:
Start by priming each object with Montana Cans Metal Primer. This step is crucial for ensuring the paint adheres well and lasts longer. Apply the primer evenly and allow it to dry completely.
Painting Process:
Shake the Montana GOLD Line spray paints in pink and blue vigorously for 2-3 minutes each to ensure the pigments are well mixed.
Begin spraying each object with your chosen color, applying thin, even coats. Allow the paint to dry between coats.
Rotate the objects as you paint to ensure complete coverage and avoid missing any spots.
Color Blocking Design
If you like, experiment with different patterns of pink and blue to create a striking color block effect. We chose to paint each object in just one color, to mix blue and pink once we styled everything. You can alternate colors on different sections of furniture or use one color for planters and another for lanterns to add variety.
Finishing Touches:
Once all items are completely dry and you’re satisfied with the coverage and color blocking effect, carefully inspect for any touch-ups needed. Then, add Varnish Spray to seal the surface of the paint. This allows the best possible durability.
Remove any masking tape used and clean up your workspace.
Enjoy Your New Decor:
Place your freshly painted items back on your balcony and admire the colorful transformation! Add some plants, a candle and a cool summer drink for the full experience! These vibrant pieces will add a playful touch to your outdoor space, perfect for summer days and nights.
