In the summer of 2006 when we started to clear the garden in Le Presbytere we discovered that an old pile of rusty metal and wood was actually the vestiges of two garden seats. We decided we would , at some stage in the future, try and restore them.

Their hour finally arrived this week
Having removed the last raggy slats Síle and I wire brushed and scraped any of the old paint off the frames.

We then painted the metal frame a bright shocking orange which is the colour of a rust primer here.

On special offer in M. Bricolage we found the perfect paint, just the right shade of turn of the century green and very aptly named for us.

Clive had transported from Ireland 20 measured and cut Iroko slats which I massaged with Danish Oil before he screwed them on the newly painted frames.

La Voila !
