dawn said ''what am i going to sit on out there now then?''
so this afternoon i made number 1 of a set of chairs for her.
''don't put these on ebay'' she said sternly once i'd finished it.
''course not'' i said

i painted the wooden boards and the inside a duck egg blue/green colour and just satin varnished the rusty outside once i'd taken the roughness off with a scotchbrite pad. i'm quite pleased with it.
before and after......
