Here are two photos of the dining set and one of the chairs. I hauled all the furniture down to Granbury Welding here in Granbury Texas and had them sandblast and repair joint welds on the furniture. 17 pieces cost about $530.00.
Here are photos of the occasional chairs. I found these cushions on sale at Lowes. They were about $50.00 for the seat and back marked down to $35.00 for the set. I decided to go with these cushions instead of my original thought to recover the exisiting ones because the cost of outdoor fabric is very high! The cushions are a little large but they work and they are comfortable and substantial.
After the furniture was all sandblasted they hauled it over to A1 body and paint and I had it all powder coated in a dark brown. The cost was $605.00 for 17 pieces.
I did splurge on a piece of granite to replace the wood on this shelf. I now have a nice place for outdoor service.
The entire cost of the project ran approximately $1500.00 We looked at buying new patio furniture and found a set that we liked at a store in Fort Worth. For 5 pieces of outdoor wicker and cast aluminum the price tag would have been around $3000.00 and that was the sale price!
I am thrilled with the look of my new-old furniture and am planning on adding an outdoor rug as soon as I can find one. I will do final photos when the rug is in place and I have everything set up for an outdoor gathering.
