~a bench makeover~

Sometimes you just have to buy things for their lines, regardless of the color, fabric, etc. 

Case in point, this little stool from Bombay Company via a garage sale for $10.

Loved the legs, but hated the dated fabric. The dark wood wasn't bad, but for me it didn't go with the rest of everything I have.

{look at that rain out the window in June! Sad!}

 I recovered the top with a stark white monogrammed sheet with the letter B, my maiden name.

This has been in the family many years.

 The dark wood got a coat of Annie Sloan paint in Coco with a little clear and dark wax to finish it off!

 Awe, much better! And by the time I was finished, the sun was shining!
