Reclaimed & Reused

Comfort by the Barrel

These old oil barrels were sitting around the house and my husband reclaimed them into beautiful outdoor furniture for my birthday! I was so surprised and impressed. He used spray paint, his welder and rubber that goes around car windows to make them perfect! He also used wood and stain to make the seats and legs.
