I want to decorate it to look cool , cozy & very relaxing .
Is there any place to find decor ideas for decks .

Q&A: How do you remove fabric (puff) paint from plastic folding chairs?

Question by Lea: How do you remove fabric (puff) paint from plastic folding chairs?
Our company did a craft using watered down fabric paint. The paint mixture dripped all over our white plastic folding chairs. Soap and water won’t remove it so we’re trying to find something that will remove the paint without ruining the chairs. I’ve heard acetone works but we think it might ruin the chairs.

Help please!!!

Goof Off removes paint, ink, glue, and so on. You can find it at a home center for just a few bucks.

I would like to paint my daughter’s name on her folding camping chair. What paint do I use?

Question by I am a Mom: I would like to paint my daughter’s name on her folding camping chair. What paint do I use?
I am pretty sure the fabric is polyester. I have seen them screen printed with logos, but I want to do this myself to save money. I want to put her name across the top of the backrest. It is one of those fold-up lawn chairs. Here is a link to the type of chair http://www.kmart.com/shc/s/p_10151_10104_089W378522110001P

Any of the fabric paints available at the craft store will be right. After they dry on fabric, they become water resistant. A suggestion, after you paint it, outline it with a black paint pen (or some other coordinating color) to make it POP.
