Debbie on Jul 02, 2015They are beautiful. I wouldn't do a thing to them. Looks like a great place to have a cup of coffee, read, and stare at the trees.Helpful Reply

Lucy Nunn on Jul 02, 2015I agree. I love them mismatched. They look in the picture like you might want to sand them and put a clear finish over them. If you want them to be a set, you might add a runner and simple cushions to them that match. Awesome find!Helpful Reply

Lisa Whitaker on Jul 02, 2015yep. both colors match the other colors in this room...If you feel you *must* do something, you could maybe white wash the dark one and sand some color off the light one.Helpful Reply

Jeani Miller Miner on Jul 02, 2015I wouldn't do a thing. Many of us go to great lengths to paint and distress our furniture to get this 'look'. It's a natural patina!Helpful Reply

Barbara on Jul 02, 2015I agree with Wendy, I wouldn't touch the benches, but I might add foam cushions in compatible colors to your room. The natural patina just can't be replicated. Beautiful!Helpful Reply
