Before and After | Stool Make over with Cath Kidston Fabric and Paint

This is obviously the after image!! I got this stool in march - thats how long it has taken me to get it done! You see all my cutey cushions and ruffley sofa throw? Ruffley in a - sat on often kind of way ^_^



This is the stool before ^_^ My parents have a taller one at their house too but im not sure il be taking that on! I initially want to crochet a cover but when i had stitched the squares together it was too small. I was so cross with myself! I decided to cover it with fabric and I treated myself to a wood and wool stool ^_^ Im just waiting for it to arrive! 




 
Lots of love Claire xo

It's fabulous,  it's just the kind of thing I would love to do but never get round to as I am the queen of procrastination!

Wow! This is gorgeous. Every time I can get to a city lovely enough to have a CK store, I wish I had enough money to buy just a little bit of the fabric, it's so pretty! Love what you did to this stool, it looks divine =) x
