Airer Maid Restoration...

I grew up dodging my Grandma's stockings and Grandad's vests which dangled above my head from the airer over the range...
This set of airer hangers belonged to Linda's family and have a least 15 layers of paint on them...
Fortunately the thickness of the paint makes them easy to take back to the metal...
I haven't decided on the finish yet and am tempted just to give them a coat of some clear sealer rather than paint them...
The airer must be sorted out before the winter's grip or I'm going to have to dodge around horrid wobbly plastic clothes airers for the next 4 months...
No, we don't have a tumble dryer...

This project finally sees completion here:
The Back Room
