Patio Furniture Refreshed!

Last Saturday Becky and I went garage saleing and we found some treasures! Becky found this great wicker patio furniture set and just knew it would be perfect for the balcony of her new apartment, and for $25 for the set, it was hers! It’s kind of hard to tell by this picture, but the cushions were in disarray. One had a big hole in the corner, and the stuffing was eaten out- not to mention it was torn up. Did that stop us? No way! We went to Joann’s and found an amazing deal on outdoor fabric ($3.50 a yard!!) and stitched up a new set to make it pretty!

We actually started sewing in the evening, and finished pretty late- but it was well worth it! Becky was a really great sewing student- and look at her fantastic work!

We had a little supervision from a little black puppy too… CIMG1534 CIMG1536

When we finished, we Becky had a great new patio set! In the picture it looks grey, but in person it is a really pretty sage green color.

We found lots more, and I can’t wait to share as I get some projects finished!
