So many times I’ve said, “I need to go and buy another…” Well the other day I said these very words about buying another stool. I gave the stool a second look and decided, why throw a sturdy stool away when I can just spray paint it; and I did just that. I’m glad that I didn’t go and waste money on purchasing something that I didn’t need. There are times when we can’t look pass the now and see what it can be. Before we throw out something that is worn but useable, give it a second look.
I’ve used this stool in my kitchen for places that I couldn’t reach. Recently I used it for re-decorating my kitchen and it really got a beating. So since it was so useful and helpful it deserves a makeover.
I taped all the hardware…
I used a x-acto knife to trim the excess tape…
before spray painting I painted the stool with primer.
I’m so glad that I repainted this stool…I love it!

What a great makeover! A beautiful spot of color for your kitchen, too! Just stopping by from the GRAND Social Linky Party and it would be great if you would do the same!
Thanks Kc, I would love to visit your site!
Thanks Kc, I would love to visit your site!
Beautiful! I have a couple similar stools that I always felt would be too much hassle, considering the hardware. Hadn’t considered an X-acto knife for help. Thank you so much for the hint…and for sharing in the GRAND Social. Such a pleasure to meet you.
Thank you Lisa! So glad that you visited, one reason I’m glad is because Kc came via Grand Social and I couldn’t figure out which Blog Social she came from…glad you had Grandma’s Briefs connected to your name, now I know where to go and make a visit.
I love your “new” stool! And I love that you painted it red! I have a vintage kitchen with many red things! That stool would fit right in! Found you at Lisa’s GRAND Social!
Thanks Terry! Glad you stopped by!
I love that stool and you did a great job refinishing it. I would love to have one exactly like it. At 5’1″ a stool is a necessity.
Stopping in from the GRAND Social.
Thanks Vicki, so glad you stop by!
