Upcycled metal outdoor chairs

Upcycled metal outdoor chairs

I picked up some great metal outdoor chairs on our free fb site. They were a bit chipped and cushions very weathered. 

I decided to clean them up, refresh them with some spray paint and put on new cushion covers. Came up a treat!

Steps

Step 1

Using the wire brush I cleaned the chairs and any chipping paint. Also used some fine sandpaper to finish them off. Then wiped them over with damp cloth to remove any dust.

Step 2

Then spray painted each one with 2 -3 coats of paint.

Step 3

Using the Mojo cushion covers, sewed them to fit original cushions.

Re: Upcycled metal outdoor chairs

Hi @millyreno,

 

A warm welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community and thank you for sharing this project.

 

The metal chairs look great with their new coat of paint and the new cushion covers.

 

It's great to see you were able to give them a new lease on life and will continue to get use out of them for years to come.

 

Congratulations on a fantastic project.

 

Jacob
