Home Depot let us know, that our supplies are delayed.
Delivery won't be till the 12th! I was so looking forward to getting started.
A few more days won't kill me.
In the meantime, I am not without "projects" and many are half-finished. I seem to do that. I start something and then get interested in something else. It will get done. Soon... One such project is 2 old IKEA wicker chairs that I've had for 20 years. Since I do not like to throw anything out, I stripped one of them down and what I do, is I stare at it - okay I stare at it for DAYS to try and come up with how I want to repurpose it.
At first, I thought I might just weave them making a homemade rag rope from old material to make a really cool chair -
TOO MUCH WORK.
I wouldn't want to use it outside.
I have enough chairs!

Rag design like this?
Or something like this?
Probably more like this.
It's simple - staining the wood, and then placing potted plants on it. I know, not a lot of imagination -
It will be good for the time being.
I just need some old fence boards for the seat part and voila,
I have another place to display my potted plants.
Whatever you do it will look better then anythingn I tried
ReplyDeleteI used a similar chair in my garden for years--I spray painted it as it was and used it for big lush ferns. I have lots of projects in the works, too. xo Diana
