This is my latest stool makeover. To see the before photo and all the project details, (paint, stencils, etc.) click HERE.
I upcycled two stools in this blog post from August, 2019, HERE. I love how the white lettering pops on the red paint!
This stool has a French style upcycle with a decor transfer on top.
Another fun stencil from Old Sign Stencils decorated this stool HERE. The stencil fit the stool perfectly!
This farmhouse style stool was stenciled with a paper herringbone stencil from Michael's. See the upcycle process HERE.
This vintage stool was made by Tell City. I covered it in burlap and stenciled it HERE.
This garage sale stool was stenciled with a Hobby Lobby stencil HERE, and I added a thick rope to the handle for added interest.
Another blog post with two stool upcycles using the Plaid Shirt stencil HERE.
Project details for both stools are in the link above.
Another sturdy, vintage stool that received a paint and Hobby Lobby stencil HERE.
I actually use this stool to get up in my bed! Antique beds are so high with a box spring.
This stool was decoupaged with Easter egg tissue paper in a blog post HERE.
Details for this rustic makeover of a homemade step stool are HERE. I used the Folk Art Layering Block to distress it.
These little stools were painted and given a Mod Podge image transfer HERE in a fun French upcycle.
I was given this stool after my friend, Jodi, dropped it and broke it into two pieces. I exaggerated the mend HERE to give it some farmhouse charm.
This old stool had a missing spindle (and a support wire) but was full of farmhouse charm after the makeover. Details HERE.
A pink makeover for this stool with a mandala stencil details are HERE.
