My First Metamorphosis Monday

Last week I posted a photo of this little stool with it's velvet leopard print upholstery. I have lived with it this way since I got it - probably 15 years ago! It certainly is time for a new outfit for this guy. I finally got around to recovering it this weekend, and just in time for Metamorphosis Monday @ http://betweennapsontheporch.blogspot.com/





Before





Close-up of corner - whoops, looks like the wood needs a face lift too!





After -An improvement, don't you think?

  8. That's a GREAT transformation. The lighter fabric really shows up well.
    PS: I love the wall color and faux finish(?) you have on it. Did you use a glaze?

  15. Thanks for commenting on my blog about my last comment. It is so cool that it is a slip cover so that you can change it out for the different seasons. They both look really good.
