goodwill sewing stool makeover...

 My VERY FIRST awesome thrift store find!!!!

And my very first furniture re-do...

This is the sewing stool I snagged at Goodwill for $3.99!!! At least I think that's what it is...it was manufactured by Singer...pretty, isn't she?




A couple of coats of primer, 2 coats of semi-gloss, some sandpaper & glaze & a cushion reupholstered with burlap and here she is now!





Better, dontcha think?

Not perfect, but definitely better...
