Woodland Animal Stools
I'm applying to be a vendor at my local farmer's market to make a little extra income to better support my family. I stumbled across Brooke of Killer B. Designs' toddler stools and loved them and just about immediately went into my garage and built two. When I finally got around to painting, I was convinced by the delight in my 4 year old daughter's face that they were kid-approved.
Here are my first two stools: raccoon and fox. I made a stencil placing the eyes and nose on each animal stool in the same spot. A change in shape and color makes them look more like the animal they emulate.

I also recently made a video of how I put together my second batch of these stools, if you'd like to see a step-by-step guide in fast forward. :)
It took me many trials to paint fawn, but this is what he looks like now. I may "edit" him before making a stencil of his face. Any suggestions are so welcome!
And here's my last stool design - bunny! Bunny was the fastest stool to both design and paint. :)
