The red and white would go good with your barns but one thing about red and yellow they fade quite badly if sitting out in the sun.<br />For more of solid color, I would choose a very pretty blue color. Many colors to choose from that's for sure.<br />Just to give you an idea on colors:<br />https://www.google.com/search?q=paint+colors+for+metal+chairs&biw=1536&bih=787&tbm=isch&tbo=u&source=univ&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiZ5aqg8ZvPAhWM14MKHTFDCOQQsAQIYAColleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13106960827480062745noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-8913974389073292682016-09-19T11:35:30.178-05:002016-09-19T11:35:30.178-05:00I so envy you!

Stinging insects are attracted to yellow, so as much as I would like yellow furniture or pillows in my yard, it's too risky. White would be nice because you could see ants crawling on them. Okay, maybe you are not as freaked out about ants as I am. If I have to vote, I vote red. Or, maybe blue.Practical Parsimonyhttp://www.practical-parsimony.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552387675026716797.post-18664208638247561892016-09-19T11:25:50.419-05:002016-09-19T11:25:50.419-05:00I like the idea of the yellow with nice seasonal p...I like the idea of the yellow with nice seasonal pillows.
