Updated Bistro Chairs

Remember these great bistro chairs I got a while back for $10.  I painted them back in the fall, but never really liked the color all that much.  So yesterday I got out some green paint I've had for awhile just to see if I'd like it better. And I did.

Here is what they looked like when I first got them
 After the first paint job, the light green/blue wasn't doing it for me.

and now, perfectly green
 
This picnic basket was not being used, so I turned it into a planter.
 
Happy Wednesday!

    Green is definitely better. I can see myself sitting there sipping on a glass of lemonade or a lemon martini :) Nice!
