There is something very satisfying about picking
up a daggy piece of furniture
and turning it into
something really nice
and very pretty.
This piece is going to be really useful too because when
I was working on it I discovered it has a space under
the seat that I could file documents or.......
.... other important things .

Wow it looks beautiful great job Clare. With 5 kids I need a secret stash :P
I just love this Clare... I've got a little telephone table I picked up in an op shop. It has the seat and a table at the side with a little draw. I was feeling slack for thinking I should repaint it and cover the seat again (considering it is in excellent condition for a vintage piece) , so I've been sitting on the fence for some time about what to do lol! I'm a pink girl all the way, so just looooove your stool. :)
hello
What a great job Clare ...:)
Just beautiful Clare...can you please tell me the name of that fabric...I just love it!
I've picked up a few old pieces of furniture from oppys or council cleanup and given them a new life it is so satisfying to see them come alive again!
Beautiful. Makes me happy just looking at it!
Clare, don't you know the dangers of online-ness. You should never say when you are leaving for a holiday or where you hide the chocolate...
Awesome seat !
Inspiring!
Lovely reno job...and a great hiding spot!
Love the fabric, love the stool and LOVE the stash idea! :)
Lovely, bright and cheery, great idea for a hidden stash, enjoy!
Looks great! You have great taste in chocolate too :-)
Popping over from Sew Many Ways! L-O-V-E that fabric! Anything pink really...
Oh I've been looking for one of these for soooo long. Only ones I seem to find though are piano stools, so just that bit wider. Oh well, perhaps a bigger seat it is, you've got me inspired! Love the fabric btw :)
I love seeing furniture makeovers. You certainly turned that stool from drab to fab with some gorgeous fabric and a lick of paint. (and I love the hiding spot too !)
That's a great redo! Very cute :)
That is so funky - great job!
What a transformation! Beautiful. And a very pleasant surprise inside, lol.
Visiting from Sew Darn Crafty. This is awesome. Did it have a chair back that you took off or did it start as a stool? Well done
You did a wonderful job of recovering and restoring your sewing machine stool. And your right that compartment underneath is so useful for storing things in.
Adorable what you did with the stool. I inherited a similar stool from my grandmother ~ hmmm...you've given me some more ideas.
You did a great job! Looks very professional.
Gorgeous! and a lovely stash space!
HA HA thats great Clare, I love a good hidey hole. The stool good fabulous!
