These vintage steel bouncers deserve an introduction all their own. I have 2 newly restored chairs coated in a color that looks like summer.These 2 Botany Bay chairs have exquisite detailing and charm that takes you back to another time, another place, another summer. Their color and style compliment what I think is the most beautiful vintage glider I have ever found.  The detailing is stylized, yet fun and playful in these 3 compatible pieces.  Unique and lovely, they will add beauty, comfort  and vitality to someone’s porch life. Maybe yours?

The weather cooperated beautifully, giving us a reprieve from the heat for a few days. The porch was an oasis, cooled by the sea breezes and warmed by our conversation and laughter. We relaxed on our porch glider and bouncers, enjoying the gentle movement and comfort that is part of the beauty of vintage outdoor furniture. We played some ping pong and ate a summer feast, some of it from our garden. We had chocolate cake and apple pie. We enjoyed the comfort and familiarity of our shared history of many, many years with friends we love like family. Continue reading →
