I recently saw two perfectly serviceable barstools out by my neighbor's trash. They needed paint, and the seats needed to be redone, but I know how to do that!
This is the before picture. The paint was faded, and the cushions were falling apart. But isn't the shape cute?? I love all the curves on these barstools.
My husband cut new platforms for the seats, and I purchased foam and fabric for them. A new coat of paint, cushions, fabric, and voila!
This is the same fabric I used for my new kitchen curtains. I love it, and even my daughter thinks it's cool! (I choose a lot of fabric that she doesn't care for.)
Excuse the mess on the bar - my neighbor came to pick them up while I was doing dishes, and I had forgotten to take pictures.
She couldn't believe how nice they looked. And she couldn't believe I knew how to "fix them up". Easy peasy. One woman's trash truly is another woman's treasure!

Those are some mighty fine bar stools! I also really like the fabric. Funny, I've always had rich colors and for the first time in the 30 years I've had my own home(s), I want to use light colors!
ReplyDeleteWow, amazing. I am hosting a Giveaway to win a 50 dollar gift card to the store HomeGoods. It would be great if you stopped by and entered. Thanks Anu

ReplyDeletePS that's so funny you noticed many of my friends are artists! Not all, but there are a few!
