Hello Everyone! Several weeks ago while shopping at HomeGood Store, they were stocking their shelves with these cute little step-stools.
I picked one up for $19.99 thinking it would work great in the powder room. Although I liked the picture on the steps, I wasn’t a fan of the green. I knew I would change that and I did as soon as I got home with it.
I used three different Annie Sloan chalk paints to achieve this look. First, I painted the whole step-stool with Graphite, then Versailles and then lightly brushed on Off White. After it dried, I sprayed water here and there and wiped it down to show signs of wear. Next, I applied both clear and dark wax.
An easy fix and it only took me about an hour from start to finish.
It’s the perfect size for our grandsons and fits so nicely in the powder room. My daughter-in-law mentioned that she would love to have one in her little powder room and guess what…..HomeGood Store had one left and lucky for me I got it!
Because the pattern on top of the step-stool was not going to work in her powder room, I re-did this one too. Again, I used three different Annie Sloan chalk paints; Graphite, Primer Red and Off White.
After it dried, I sprayed water here and there and wiped it down to show signs of wear. Next, I applied both clear and dark wax.
I don’t know about you but I like having a little stool or a waiting bench in our bathrooms especially for our grandsons. Now, I need to make a trip to their house so I can deliver the little step-stool. It’s always nice to find some little excuse to get up there just so we can see those grandsons of ours…of course to see our son and daughter-in-law too!
As always, thanks for visiting and have a wonderful weekend.
Gail
