Country Burlap Stool


I found this old stool and imediatly knew what I wanted it to look like.


The cusion was ruined and the legs were pretty banged up, but it was solid and had a working swivle to it. It had four individually stapled layers of fabric on it, so the longest task was removing those. (I enjoy watching movies as I take out staples) The original fabric was an off white canvas like material, very pretty in its own way, but very damaged.
The day I bought this stool I had also bought 4 big old burlap coffee bags. I decided that the burlap would be my fabric for the seat, but to make it a little more girly I would add lace and a pink/rose color for the legs. I even finished it off with a lace bow! I love the country look to it.
