My mother in law gave me these chairs. They were left at the riverhouse when they purchased it. They are very heavy rodiron, and I thought all they needed was a little spraypaint.
I was right about that part. Two cans of Wal-Mart spray paint and they were good as new. The one thing I did not consider was the cushions. I already have a patio set and the cushions are still in good condition, but the print is discontinued, so I had to get something that would match khaki and olive green. This cushion was from Lowe's for $28, and a little too small.
I returned it and found these at Big Lots this week. They were $24 each, so still more than I wanted to spend, but they match the other cushions perfectly and since the chairs were free, I still feel good about it.
I am so excited my wheelbarrow is finally in full bloom too!
While my brother in law is here this week we have lots of little projects going on. I will share our progress next week.
Be sure to visit Reinvented to see some more Trash to Treasures!
