I'm pretty sure I imaged these chairs into existence. It's not often I go thrifted and think to myself "gee I really do want a pair of fold up chairs...comfy...bright in colour perhaps, and only needing a but of tlc."
Wham! They appeared before I could even finish this sentence in my head. And at the stellar price of $8 a pop....these little babies took no time to shine like new. I quickly stashed them at my folks little hobby farm - perfect spot for a bit of DIY when sanding rust and spray paint was involved.
I then moved them to my father-in-laws shed....where he kindly finished them off by giving the seats the clean of their life....nothing a bit of metho and some elbow grease!
Not a speck of rust in sight!!!
Take a seat why don't you??
So from rust bucket to sparkly new....
the only cost was the rust proof aluminum spray can for $14!
Ever found just what you were looking for whilst thrifting?
Do share...
