I rescued some chairs from someone's garbage. Well, I couldn't have done it without hubby... I saw them in a trash pile, but I drive a Chevy Cobalt. They weren't fitting in that! So I drove home, grabbed hubby and his van and drove back (luckily, it was in my neighborhood). Hubby used all his muscle to pick them up and put them in the back of the van. But... the hatch wouldn't close. And they weren't stable. So he sat in the back hanging on to them for dear life while I drove verrrrry slowly home. (He tolerates my spray paint addiction very well.)
They were originally white and were very rusted. I sanded them and spray painted them black. And now we have patio chairs that perfectly match our patio table!
But last year, in the fall, they took a tumble across our cement patio in a storm. Painted surfaces do not like being scraped against cement : (
Five minutes with a can of black spray paint fixed that, though!
