Butterfly Chairs



Last winter when we took a walk in the woods next to the pool and behind the house, we found three buterfly chair frames. Earlier I showed Mary's restoration in progress, as she sanded, primed and painted the frames. We found a place on-line where the seat covers were on sale, and picked up three blue ones.
Here they are, proudly on display after their restoration. They are actually going to spend most of their summers down by the pool.
In taking a second look at these, I have to make a note of how great that newly re-laid brick terrace looks! This is the basketweave pattern; and the random discolorations in the brick give it great character.

Tell Mary nice work on the chairs. They look good (and comfortable) and fit in well there by the pool... now if only you had "a little shrubbery ~ but not too expensive" to go with them alongside the pool.

We will have to find a shrubber in that case.
