I got these chairs and a table with no top at a garage sale today for $15. I thought that was good. The chairs are super sturdy. The table basically was free, because the chairs were marked separately at $4 each. Anyway, I’m thinking of painting them each a different “sherbet” color, like raspberry, orange, lime green and I’m not sure what else. What do y0u savvy decorators think? As you can see, my deck is pretty boring.
And what do you think I can do with the table? I love the curly-cues, so I hate to hide them under a solid top. My old table needs paint, too, but I don’t want to get rid of the umbrella function, because we use that a lot. We just need to figure out a way to stabilize the umbrella.
And for all you organizing buffs, here are some pictures of my newly organized and cleaned food cupboards.
Looks great! And what a deal on those chairs! 🙂
Awesome!
I’d go blue for the 4th color for the chair.
If you’re trying to stabilize the umbrella where it comes through the table, I’d see if maybe a pool noodle would work. You should be able to shave down what you don’t need. But I’ve never tried it, so I can’t be sure.
And that’s really a beautiful table! I have no idea how to cover it without covering the curly-cues. Huh…..
Love ya!
We might refurbish the matching table. And at the new house, we won’t need the umbrella (which is a pain, because it doesn’t have an anchor, so we have to put it up, then put it away every day), because we’ll have a covered porch for it.
