Paint
Next, I took basic white latex leftover and painted over the green paint.
I took some sand paper and rubbed off some of the white so that the green would show.
I took some leaf stamps and added an ivy and grapes thing here and there.
As a final touch I outlined the dowel banding with some yellow.
Wrote on the bench seat THERE IS ALWAYS NEXT SPRING! Cheer me up when winter comes and I have to take the cushions inside for storage.
