Weekend Project

So my MOPS group had a large garage sale this weekend.  I picked up just a few items (3 in total), one of which was this step stool.  It was a little worse for the wear, probably from the rain...its in part MDF & the bottom was a bit wet & swollen.  But for $1, I saw project written all over it.
Garage Sale find: $1
In the girls' bathroom, I have the Pottery Barn floral theme going with bath rugs, the shower curtain, towels, etc.  I had painted canvases 2 years ago to go with the theme, & took this step stool on as my next project.  Here's the canvases I painted & the shower curtain:

the other canvases I painted to match...

And finally, the step stool in its final state...which included a good sanding, some hand painted flowers, and a good coat of lacquer paint.

  1. You did a great job! Of course, now I'm curious to see what everything looks like pulled together in bathroom but that can be for another post.
