The white kids' picnic table was peeling. The reddish wood table was split and needed gluing. (I opted not to paint this one... yet.)
I had lots of enthusiastic help. This table and chair set belonged to my mother-in-law. We painted it gold for Miss Elsie. Now that Mister Ewan has it, it needs a color update.
So now it is a lovely spring green....
The finished picnic table...
All of the paint was on-hand, leftover from other projects. So after three days of prepping, priming, and painting, we have some lovely, clean furniture that looks brand new. I also glued a bunch of other broken items that had been piling up. I really, really, really like clamps and Elmer's Wood Glue.

Fixing stuff is very rewarding. I really love the colour you used on little E´s furniture. And DH and I are staring at the tree trunk in your yard, it looks very exotic to us. Huge! :)
That is a cedar tree... and yes, it is huge... so is the canopy that drops seeds and branches into the yard!
