Vintage Lawn Chairs


I know what you’re thinking ! What’s come over Sharon ? Blog posts two days in a row ?
I just couldn’t wait to show you the chairs I found yesterday at a flea market .
I have been looking for some of these for quite awhile .

I love these vintage metal chairs ! As you can see they are a yucky hunter green color . But it looks like at one time they were a lighter green.

I am in the process of sanding down the chippy spots so I can paint them . I think I will paint them the color of my shutters .

I was thinking maybe pink like the door , but I think the green will cover better with the lighter green . What do you think ?
Then maybe I will paint the wooden glider pink…

I’m still on the lookout for a couple more chairs like these , I have a set price that I won’t go over , and most places want an arm and a leg for them. I was glad I was able to talk the man down to my price on these .
We are having a beautiful day today . Sunny and warm and windy . We are suppose to have warm weather all week , but they are calling for rain too .
April showers bring May flowers !
Have a great week !

  1. Sharon, I have one that style that I will be selling before long. I have been picking these chairs up when the price is good. I now have too many! I wish you lived close by!

  2. Love those chairs. I have four I need to redo this summer. They remind me so much of my childhood when the parents would sit in them and visit while all of us kids played until dark.

    I would do them in green for sure. They would probably cover a lot quicker.
