I think it is great, you get to keep them from getting rustier and you get to keep the patina as well. So that is what I would do to the table set if it were mine.Lady Pamelahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03123959598470549553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3696509255782276371.post-67438258224570701812010-06-09T20:46:20.188-04:002010-06-09T20:46:20.188-04:00Loving all your white chippies today and the bike ...Loving all your white chippies today and the bike is too cool.

That's my favorite time to decorate (besides Christmas of course) Regarding your chairs...I purchased some vintage chippy, rusty iron chairs a couple years ago that the previous owner had sprayed with some kind of sealer. This has kept the chairs perfect, with no further rusting. I do only use them indoors however. I'll try to post some close ups of the chairs later. I had to chuckle at your husband's desire to paint away the rust for you. My husband would have thought the same.<br />Happy Spring to you and yours!A Shabby Moment in Timehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10897570138567789130noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3696509255782276371.post-41094899532555537212010-06-09T08:21:20.371-04:002010-06-09T08:21:20.371-04:00I love your white outdoor furniture and the plant ...I love your white outdoor furniture and the plant stand.
