I bought a few footstools recently at the local auction. I ripped off the old batting and fabric....
...and dry brushed some Valspar paint on it. I love these little sample jars - 8 oz for $3!
I cut a new piece of batting a little larger than the top...
...and stapled on an old salt bag:
To keep the "vintage look", I trimmed it with Crocheted lace that had a variety of buttons attached to it:
The trim was adhered with a glue gun!
A quick fix to an old footstool:
This didn't even take 1/2 hour to complete!
Now I have to makeover the other footstool!

Cute makeover, Patti. I picked up an antique French foot stool at the City Wide Garage Sale this past weekend. It has a needlepoint top which I may or may not change. Love the salt bag for the fabric. Looks cute!
ReplyDeleteOh wow.
ReplyDeleteI really, really love this!
That trim makes it just beyond cute!
Well, if that isn't the cutest thing. I have never seen lace with buttons attached like that. LOVE the fun finish it gave! xo Diana
