>If you have spent any time on this blog you might have seen my patio furniture. It is a set that was popular in the ’90s. Well, the ’90s are over and I needed some patio furniture. All I did was sand the wood parts and spray paint. In funky colors! I chose the colors because they remind me of drinking margaritas at a Mexican restaurant.
Here is the before:
The legs were already off the table from storage. |
And the after:
Aren’t they cheerful? |
The chairs aren’t the most comfy… |
…so I have memory foam seat cushions in the plans. |
* 5/31/11 – Update: This should go without sayin’ but I don’t always pay attention to my instincts….Don’t leave this out in the rain. The pressboard under the tiles swelled up and cracked the wood. OOPS!!
>Oh I love it! So cheery and fun. Great job.
>I remember on Friends, Monica had similar chairs in a bunch of fun colors and I was always jealous. Now I'm jealous of you. 🙂
>*Gasp* I LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS!!! Especially for an outdoor space, which are always neglected in my neighborhood. As Jenn said, it's just so cheerful! I can just imagine having a summer BBQ with good friends and good wine out there. Great job!!
>LOVE it!! I like how bright, colorful, and totally cheery the set is. I'm definitely copying you when I get a new set – hopefully soon!Cheers,Tracy
