"New" chairs

Jon rescued these chairs from work a long time ago. I sanded and painted one in the same green as our kitchen, but the paint never seemed to dry. It's still sticky. So I made a chair pad and little slipcover for the back, and hey, that tacky paint helps the pad to stay put. :) With the addition of part of our old living room rug, our back porch is turning into an inviting place! (Wouldn't some strings of white Christmas lights, a plant, and a cool chandelier or lantern look great?)
