Last summer, I found a couple
of barstools at a yard sale for $2 a piece. One is used as a plant stand on our porch. The other has been repurposed as an end table in our loft.
|
 |
To do this, I took a traditional barstool…. |
 |
|
….and a package of rope that I
purchased from Hobby Lobby.
|
 |
|
Starting from the outside edge and
working my way to the center, I hot glued the rope to the seat of the barstool. I unexpectedly ran out of rope just as I got
to the center......
|
 |
|
...but lucky for me, I had some scrap
rope in my craft drawer that I saved from the packaging of a gift set someone
gave me. Yeah, I keep stuff like that
for moments like this;)

|
I love the texture the rope adds,
and that’s why I chose to use it.
|
 |
|
Lastly, I painted the green legs with some sample Louis blue ASCP (Annie Sloan chalk paint) that was sent to me with a recent purchase, and then I finished it off by applying a coat of ASCP clear wax. |

|
The seat of the stool is the
perfect size for a lamp, making a barstool a really great repurposed end table.
