Goodwill Barstools Painted Black

 

I’ve  been wanting a pair of barstools for the island in the kitchen since we moved into this house.  Not wanting to pay $20-40 for a nice bar stool, I knew I needed to get my thrift on and keep an eye out for a set that I could refinish.

I did eventually find something that I could work with.  That's how these barstools…..

…..turned into these barstools…..

…..using the same method that I used in “Refinishing CraigslistKitchen Table – No Streaks and No Sanding.”

The black barstools look great with my inexpensive placemats and napkins from World Market and my clearance dishes from Target.

 

I love them!  The black paint makes them look just like the barstools I’ve seen at Target, only I didn’t pay a Target price for them.  Which reminds me….. I almost forgot the best part:)  I scored these barstools at Goodwill.  They were $5.99 a piece, but…..wait for it…..I purchased the barstools on the first Saturday of the month, making them just $3 each! YES….definitely a GREAT BUY!
