    i think martha stewart had something about recaning wicker furniture and general care tips about wicker furniture in her magazine one time. might want to search her website and see if anything is there. you also might try hgtv.com and the diy website. i can't remember if it is diy.net or diy.com but it is a do it yourself website that goes along with the diy network.

    I'm pretty sure you can spray paint it pretty easily. I don't know about repairs, though.

    yes, some parts of the wicker are sticking out, broken off.
    I want to soften the rough edges, paint it white and get or make blue striped cusions for it.
