Happy Wednesday to you all! I finished up a makeover on this great little metal stool today and wanted to share. This project is a perfect example of seeing potential in simple and ordinary things.
One of my dear friends dropped this rusty stool off on my front porch one day many weeks back. I was instructed (very sweetly of course) to white wash it and put a number "2" on the seat. I loved the stool as it was, it has a great industrial feel to it, and I knew it could be an adorable treasure with a little Stuck on GRAY treatment.
Before
After
I am so excited about how the 2 turned out. I have been wanting some large stencils for quite a while, then it donned on me today. !!!Download a stencil font on the computer!!! Sure enough, there are about eleventy kajillion to choose from. I can't wait to use it to make signs.
I hauled my bucket of dried hydrangeas over to hang above the stool. Just in case you were wondering, they dried fine upright in the bucket.
Isn't that 2 just the greatest? I think I will put some of my new typographic beauties on pillows in the near future. Possibly for myself...there may or may not be a new white couch moving in soon in need of some pillows!!! Please hold in your excitement!
That's all for now my darlings :) I have to get back to my newest wreath endeavor. I am mildly certain that it won't turn out though, more to come on that soon. Enjoy these next few stormy days...
