After several "lively discussions" we finally came to an agreement on our patio set. We found this vintage dining set and have begun to refinish it:I love the chairs. They remind me of the Jetsons!
The fabric had to go and the last owner apparently really didn't want to see the fabric removed, b/c it was triple stapled to the chair:
Here are the chairs, all sanded and ready for refinishing:
First coat of purple paint:
And the giant table which is now turquoise:
If anyone is wondering, Ian chose both colours. No joke. Now I am searching Etsy for fabric to sew chair pads. All suggestions welcome. I mean, we already have purple chairs and a turquoise table, so how much worse can it get???!
