Vintage 60's Step Stool Gets a Makeover
I needed a kitchen stool and found this worn out 1960's step stool at a yard sale for 10 dollars. I was able to give new life and with a few simple steps. I love how it turned out!
I have tall cabinets in my current kitchen and really needed a step stool. I had a hard time finding anything cute in the stores and I really wanted one like I remember my grandmother use to have. Finding one at a yard sale was my best option. And at 10 dollars you can't go wrong. But it did need some dressing up.
I started the process by removing the old worn vinyl from the seats and adding fresh fabric.
I used spray paint to give the frame a new clean look
It came out really sweet. Click on the blog link below for the full tutorial and story.

I have a small stepladder and don;t know if I was to redo or let it be so my 5' 2" daughter can get things out of the kitchen cabinets! Great Job! I may follow this idea myself!!!

Have a question about this project?
You glued the fabric to the stool front? I tried that with a similar stool and it came out horribly... Idk what I did wrong.
