Cool Stool Makeover
I found this stool in the basement of our house when we moved in. I don't know how old it is but I am pretty sure it belonged to my husband's Grandparents. It was a little wobbly but I used a rubber mallet to put some of the dowels back in place and then added a little wood glue for support. Than I sanded the entire thing down and filled any holes with wood putty. After letting the putty dry and sanding those spots again, I spray painted the entire stool with black Krylon semi- gloss spray paint. When everything was dry I added a piece of egg carton padding to the seat and recovered it with outdoor canvas, so it will be durable enough to keep up with my two boys (The hubs and my son, Buggy).
I am posting this over at the CSI Project... stop over and check them out for tons of ideas and inspiration. :)
That turned out so nice! I've seen these stools go for big money at flea markets and estate sales. You turned yours into a family heirloom. Great job!
