Turn Thrift Store Finds Into Outdoor Dining Seats!!

by Krista @ thehappyhousie

Have you seen how crazy expensive outdoor dining sets can be? So after finding a great table and benches at a garage sale I decided to add some custom outdoor dining seats by upcycling some thrift store dining chairs into outdoor seating!!

turn thrift store finds into outdoor dining seats, decks, outdoor furniture, outdoor living, painted furniture

After a light sanding to remove some of the shine/varathane I gave the chairs a light sanding and then spray painted them in a light beachy/turquoise blue color.

Perhaps not for everyone but I LOVE this color to no end. You could pick whatever color suits you, or even keep them wood and use outdoor finish varathane to protect them.

We then reattached the newly upholstered seats....
