Free: Four wooden dining room chairs (Beacon Hill North) Gifted - These vintage chairs are in very good condition although they could use a bit of tightening. Two are as pictured & two need recovering. Included with the chairs are several needlepoint pieces that could be used for this purpose. They could also be re-covered with a more modern fabric - I gather this is not a complicated process.

Free: Brick clip fasteners (Beacon Hill North) Gifted - Four fasteners bought at Lee Valley. They supposedly fit bricks 2 1/2” to 2 3/4” in height (queen size), however, I found they are too big for 2 1/2” bricks hence this give-away. I have used these fasteners before &, if you have the correct size, they work very well.
