When my sister Joan moved from the family house to a condo, she had no room for two beautiful Adirondack chairs that she had for years. So she gave them to us, and you have seen them in blog posts showing the back yard. They sit up on the top of the little hill, and we sit there with coffee or cold drinks and relax under the shade of the trees and look out over our little world. Well, the weather got to both of them, and we hadn't noticed until I sat in one and one of the slats in the seat broke! So the water had caused rot in some parts of the seat. So I got some new wood and made new slats, and replaced the front part of the piece of wood that the slats are screwed to. Then I painted the chair and it looks good as new!
So, one chair done and one to go. This is what the second chair looks like and there is actually less repair needed to this one. In a few days this chair will look as good as new as well! Easy peasy! Thank you Joan for our wonderful chairs. I am taking good care of them!
