    $15 patio set reborn

    I bought a rusty old patio set on Craigslist for $15. Gave it a light sanding, primer, and a couple of coats of paint. I think it turned out pretty cute.

    It did come out cute. I reprinted mine last year and I'm making new cushions this year. Hopefully going to work on them tomorrow. Nice job.

      Excellent job! I have always enjoyed refinishing furniture and fixing up old things to look new again! It's fun seeing what others do to revamp old things that others practically give away! BTW, I love your patio! Are those stones laid in concrete or stamped to look like stones?

        Life is like a party. You invite a lot of people; some go, some join you, some laugh with you, some didn’t come. But in the end, after the fun, there would be a few who would clean up the mess with you. And most of the time, those were the uninvited ones.

            What a cute bright and cheerful spot you have created on your patio. Now all you need is a cool drink, a snack and someone to share them with. Enjoy your creative handiwork. May

                It may give people the idea that I'm bright and cheerful all the time....

                        What is wrong with this? Ab-sol-utely nothing. What a creative mind, it is beautiful. A little modern retro going on.

                          I love repurposing and fixing up up old things like this. You did great. Very nice little set.

                            Thank you all.

                            Rebecca - only the perimeter stones are laid in concrete. The rest have the paver sand around them. They look this good because we just got them done. I hope we can keep them looking this good for a long time.
