Quick Redo




I fixed up these little stools for a friend's new home. I forgot to take a before picture, but they started as a set of bentwood chairs that my husband had found neglected in an alley somewhere. One of them had a broken back support, and when my friend decided she needed a set of stools by her front door, I had these guys in mind.
They were pretty dirty, so after taking the back off of both chairs and using some steel wool and
wax-n-feed on the legs, I just took a little bit of fabric that I had found at an estate sale(3.5 yards for $2)and stapled it on. An easy and quick redo, will look great on either side of her front door, with baskets underneath for shoes.
