On one of our many farmer's market trips this summer we ran into a man who makes furniture by hand. It is his hobby. He makes things like porch swings and patio furniture. We fell in love with these adirondack chairs. It was a bit of a splurge, so we decided they are an early anniversary present to ourselves. They are so comfortable. He sells them unfinished so we had to figure out what to do with them. After much debate and hemming and hawing about colors we chose Wescott Navy - in person it is a charcoal-ish gray-blue. Its actually a deck stain, not a paint, so these are perfectly protected from the weather.
Now we can take two steps out the back door and sink to relaxation...makes for a perfect "stay-cation"!
On a side note - it is a small world! The man who made this furniture actually knows Joseph's family! He has been fishing with Pop and knows a bunch of people from Joseph's hometown. It kind of makes this furniture more special to us.
p.s. Happy Birthday Breathen!
