After a somewhat stressful week of floods and uprooted trees everywhere I look...I am heading back up the coast this weekend for some R&R.
Power is back on up there..thank goodness and I have begun my new job (fridays only at the moment...but it's a start). So I am doing a lot of travel between 2 jobs and 2 homes.....yes I really am living in 2 worlds!!!!
Rain is falling again on this ol tin roof as I type...so another wet weekend is forecast. Hopefully not as bad as the one just gone.
So I have a project to begin.
A few weeks ago I picked up these 4 director chairs from the Noosa tip ( my super favourite place right now!) for only $8 each.
I plan on sanding, priming and painting these little gems this weekend.
Any ideas on what fabric would look great on these chairs????
I am painting them a soft french grey, so was thinking black and white bold stripe....
However I am open to any suggestions.
wishing you all a safe and happy week.

Hi! Glad you are getting some much needed rain! Love the hunters. I wear mine all the time here in the rain and mud capital of the world (also known as the Emerald City:) of Seattle. The directors chairs were a real steal and will look so pretty with the grey paint. Hope all goes well with your new job!

Those directors chairs look great - look forward to seeing the finished product! Black and white stripe would look great or even an ikat in charcoal.
