Before & After




You may not know this about me, but I'm obsessed with DIY. I can't help it. I scour thrift stores and the side of the road like a ninja! I found this gem at Habitat for Humanity. After some haggling (from Special K) and convincing the clerk, that no, I don't need 4 chairs to go along with the stool, it was mine! I cleaned this mother with fire. Seriously, with fire. I had to take a match to a few spots that I just couldn't get to.

When I saw the fabric, I had to have it. It's adding a little extra oomph to the kitchen. I can just see myself sitting on it when there are not enough chairs to go around...maybe even standing on it to reach the out of reach.

I'm SO into that kind of thing as well. They're usually my favorite pieces in anybody's house. My friend, Jennifer, is a WIZ at doing this. Almost all her furniture and art was a find that she worked up somehow. Amazing. I'm going this weekend to find a bookshelf (or maybe two) for T. :)
