Adirondack Pop Art
So, inspired by these, at Ocean Point Inn in Oregon where we stayed last year,
and these cushions by Karen Hilton, which I'm soon hoping to get on mirrormirror,
we went to the paint shop at the weekend and choose these
for the sickly pastel-coloured Adirondacks on our patio.
I'm hoping, since the colour scheme in the garden is supposed to be like this - full of clashing hot pinks, oranges, reds and purples - that they might just work.
I know, subtle colour is not exactly a forte of mine. We shall see. Painting updates to come.
Those colours will work brilliantly. I love to see garden furniture in brave colours - bravo you

Thanks Di. I was feeling a bit nervous about these colours when I was painting the chairs this afternoon (the orange is er, bright). But you have stiffened my resolve...
