On the weekend we got so excited about October arriving, that we set up a little outside area for eating and reading on the front deck. After a month or so of searching for some outside furniture, we decided to go for the recycled option, and bought this old 1950's mint-green formica table from the Recycling Centre. We also found four old chairs (wooden with chrome frames) and a palm-leaf printed sun umbrella complete with tassled edging- I think the whole lot cost us $20. The table is quite easy to move around, so we can pop it inside the shed if it rains.
After giving it all a good scrub and stringing up some fabric flags for good measure, we joyfully ate dinner outside last night. Even if we did have to wear warm jerseys and hurry back inside as soon as we were finished eating.
