Latest Project

Two years ago friends of ours from church gave us their old patio furniture. I've been wanting to use it, so I decided to spruce it up a little before summer weather gets here.

Here is what the old chair pads looked like:


I recovered them with some red and white material:



Here is what the chairs looked like originally:
I had to prime them first....

and then....Red!

Here is the finished project:

Now that they look much better, maybe we'll use these chairs while enjoying the sunshine from our back porch :)

What?...were you expecting a picture of Chloe? ;) Here's one for you who made it to the end of this post. It was taken on Easter by my talented cousin Erin.

I started the cooking process early so it was done by lunchtime.  Here is the turkey, barely fitting into my oven!  "the farmer and the chef" :)
