| Rockers prior to painting |
As part of the redo of the front of the house, I decided that the rockers on the front porch needed to be repainted. We had gotten them maybe 10 years ago from a neighbor that was moving. Even though the front porch is covered they had gotten quite weathered.

We took them apart and really scrubbed them down. Then they dried in the sun before my husband started the painting. This went much quicker than refinishing the swing since there wasn't a long wait time between coats.

| Final coat done |
He used spray paint and a cool gadget handle to help with the application. After the pieces thoroughly dried inside for a week, he reassembled the rockers, replacing the old rusty bolts with shiny new silver ones.

We chose a blue grey color to go with the blue house and the grey striped fabric. The rockers look like new now. Next week I will show you how he transformed the green plastic table into a work of art.
