Kitchen Stool make over..metal step stool

I have to admit these up cycles are Fun .  The first one you can see here. This  actually was my grandmother's stool.  My parents had stored it in a building, that they kept the pool chemicals in, and major rust had set in.

I took some steel wool to the chrome on this item and, figured out real quickly, that I do not have the elbow grease nor the ambition to clean it all up.  So I resorted to old faithful "Rustoleum".  The color I am attached to now is Oil Rubbed Bronze not only is it a fantastic color but the coverage is awesome.  I also had a stash of remnants that were on sale for 50% off at Jo Ann's and found a perfect cheap match.

The end results!

A fab. Kitchen step stool!

The fabric is the perfect color!

The paint has disguised the rust.

Even from the side this one looks good!

Hope that you are warm on this brisk fall day!

Burlap and wine labels Metal Kitchen stool make over

This was too good  a deal to pass up at a yard sale.  Little white kitchen stool that had the slide out step attachment broke off.

It was in okay shape had a nick in the corner of the vinyl cover so it had to be recovered.  Handy Hubby also drilled out the rivets that were holding the foot bracket on and put screws in the holes they were painted over and look fine.  I had picked up some burlap at Jo Ann's and used my 60% off coupon that came in the mail as well as a 15% off your total order that was on my smart phone.  (that adds up to 75% off the fabric)   Jo Ann's will use more than one coupon as long as it is from another source.  ( Smart Phone, Text or mailer)

The white color of the stool was too bright for the burlap so I gave it a light coat of Almond by Ace.  So easy!  This was a quick project.  The seat and back come off so that you can cover them and slide them back on ( I was almost disappointed I had the 221 out and ready you can read about Her here) ..I like the results. Talk about instant gratification. 

So glad that you came by many blessings from my Home to Yours.
