Pimp my Swing Seat

We have had a swing seat for years: the top canopy that shades and shelters it broke years ago and it has rusted in all weathers.



So it was time for some TLC: anti rust metal paint applied after minimal lazy sanding! It then looked like this...



Virtually new! 

It looked gorgeous. When I called the husband out to see, and we sat together admiring the handiwork, I made the mistake of saying,

"I can't believe its lasted this long without the seat fabric going through..."

and then it did and we both ended up folded up like umbrellas, bottoms on the grass and heads and feet sticking out of the top!

Sometimes you wonder whether its time to call it a day - but no!
I mended it with new fabric.
