barstool transformation.

October 11, 2011 by Michelle Hinckley |

Once in while I come across a really daring and original DIY project and this one is no exception.
This project by Amy landed in my inbox yesterday and it’s worthy of a shout-out.
It started out with these white leather barstools from Overstock.
Amy used some paint (especially made for leather) and a stencil from Cutting Edge Stencils. 
GUTSY!
I would have never thunk-it but it worked!
  What a result!
For more details go to Amy’s blog here.

    that is so impressive! I mean, it’s a gorgeous kitchen anyways, but that really adds to it..
    I dislike the leather seats, but after the stencil, I’m in love!
