Number Stool Redo

Phew!  I am beat!  What a weekend!  I am pretty excited, I just got a very small spot to sell my crafty goodies!  So for all of you whom live near me, come check out my space at Uncovered Ruby!  There is some pretty fun stuff if you are into shabby goodies.

When the space is all up and decorated I will take some pictures and pass them along.

I have been working on so many projects (did I mention I had a couple of days to get this all together?).  I did capture some of this little stool that I changed up a bit:

Here is what it looked like before:



So I sanded the top, not too much I wanted the age to stay some.  Then I wrote some numbers on the top.  I just use what I have around to make my letters.  The Number 1 I used a wooden stick for the width and freehand the rest.



Then I just watered down some black paint and filled it in.  For the legs I just did a classic black.  I sealed the top with a Watco Danish Oil in Natural.  I almost kept this..think it is pretty cute.



See you soon with more of the trinkets!

xoxo Ade

  3. I really want to do some of these and I'm kicking myself because I had 10 of them and sold them in a garage sale a few years ago!! Yours is giving me the itch to be on the hunt now!
