Recently a friend reclaimed this little seat from the side of the road and sent it to me and said, "Give it new life". So David cut a board for the seat so that I could recover it. I found a great fabric for $7.00 a yard but I really only needed 1/2 yard so it was around $3.50. I decided to paint it black. The black I use is very forgiving of scratches and wear. So here is the finished project:
I'm still get so excited about a new project that I forget to take a "before" picture. So my before & afters are not that great pics. I started priming a vintage radio cabinet yesterday and remembered that I didn't take a pic of it when I was 1/2 finished. Hopefully, I will get better @ documenting my work.

Love, love, love this stool. My mom had one like this way back in the day that matched her bedroom set. The fabric choice and black paint really gives it a whole new life!
