Trash to Treasure
My mom was cleaning out one of her closets and found this little stool. She forgot she even had it and was going to throw it out. Well I couldn't have that, so I saved it and gave it new life!
So what do you think? I know it seems like all my posts lately have been about something in my living room. I promise this is it (for now that is ;)!!
Have a great week!

I love little footstools like this, Martina! They are perfect for makeovers. I see you've used my favorite fabric, too!

Penny I bought the fabric at Hobby Lobby. It must be new because this is the first time I saw it there.
Wonderful makeover. I need a break from the house after being under the weather. Perhaps I'll go looking for fabric. I love what you used.
I love little footstools. Yours turned out so cute. I can't believe how much better it looks now that you got ahold of it!
I think the stool is happy to get a make-over! I love how it looks!

Hi Martina, I love your little stool and you can show everything in your living room and I'm sure I would love all of it. Thanks for coming by my blog and leaving kind words.
I love your projects, Martina, and this little stool is lovely. The new fabric is so pretty. They inspire me to get projects done too.
You are such a sweetie to save her and just look how pretty she is now!!!

I love the fabric! Just perfect!
What a cute stool, Martina....love how it turned out. You really gave it a great new look. Pretty alphabet fabric, too. Linda
Martina it turned out wonderfully. Did you stencil the stool, or is it the fabric design?

Your stool is simply darling! I love it. Martina, did you give your stool a coat of black then the white? I notice you can see black where it has been distressed and I have wondered how that is done.
Hugs, Cindy
How cute! Love the script fabric cover and the ASCP frame. It doesn't even look like the same stool. Adorable.
Great save! I love the fabric and think it looks fabulous in your living room.
Beautiful job once again!
Pam
Great job, Martina. I love the script fabric. x Sharon
I love, love the fabric, Martina! And, what a great idea tucking it under your coffee table, making it part of your "vignette!" Might have to borrow ... :)
Hi Martina,
Great before and amazing after!!
Love this little stool..it fits just perfectly! You have a great eye for re-purposing out dated items!
All the Best,
Christine
Hi Martina...didn't see this yesterday...did you see mine like this...almost the same stool...so funny....great lunch today...so nice to finally meet in person...we will definitely do it again!...xo, Mariaelena
In a word...LOVE! I adore that scripted fabric. So happy the little guy was saved and has a happy new life. :) Blessings, Barb

I love the foot stool makeover.
It looks so cute with the new material on it!
What a nice makeover :)
So cute! I love your little stool, there's always room for little things! I'm now a follower
Nice transformation. Love the script alphabet fabric! Coming over from WOW and am your newest follower. I'd love the follow-back if you get a chance! Hugs, Kim
Oh, it's darling! I love it as it's so little and the fabric you chose is so pretty.
Be a sweetie,

I love it! It's a cute stool, MArtina. Glad you saved it....Christine
Great job, it's beautiful, such a lovely transformation.
I'm so jealous Martina! I've been scouring Craigslist and Goodwill to find a little footstool to makeover. Yours is adorable!
Martina, that is a winner of a transformation! Love the fabric, it's just awesome! Isn't it satisfying to turn something into something extraordinary? Great job!
Love the bench Martina! That fabric is so popular. It was everywhere at market. I actually ordered some ribbon in the french print. I hope it comes in soon. Thanks for joining the party!! Kristen
I'm sure the little stool thanks you Martina. It looks much happier now.
What a darling Trast to Treasure! And best of all it was FREE!
Be Blessed,
Lorena
So cute! I have some similar fabric, and now I have to decide what to put it on since I don't have a cute little stool...
I used that same fabric on two lyre back chairs that I have in my booth. I love it. Maybe I should use it on something for me like you did. Great look.
Martina- it looks wonderful!
Isn't transforming things fun?
Thank you so much for visiting my blog.

It's perfect, Martina! Love it tucked under your coffee table!
