| 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. |
