A Nautical Stool Makeover
A Vintage stool get's a nautical makeover today.
A coat of white chalk paint, then Duck Egg on the seat.
On the bottom of the legs I painted more Duck Egg for a "dipped" look.
I hand painted an anchor silhouette on the seat followed by a coat of clear wax and a coat of dark wax to give the stool an aged look.
Anchors Away!
(This stool was purchased by a Navy man
who was so happy to find a stool with an anchor!)
Nice! Love all nautical at the moment!
ReplyDeleteNice dipped legs;)

Love this Susan.
ReplyDeleteI see a lot of the dipped leg effect on Pinterest.
Nautical seems to be the "In thing" in my area.
Thanks for sharing.

That's so cool that it went to a Navy man!
ReplyDeleteFantastic Susan!:)
ReplyDeleteHey there!!! Catching up on your blog this morning. When I saw this stool, I thought about a blog I follow called Inspiration Avenue. The theme this week is nautical. You out to link this to that party.
ReplyDeleteHope all is well. Have a great week ahead!
HEY IS Shel from Inspiration Ave. Love your stool so perfect and fitting!!!
ReplyDeleteA wonderful idea to paint an anchor on the stool. The colour of the background is so right, makes me think of battleship grey. I do love the way the anchor rope falls gracefully down to the leg of the stool.
ReplyDeleteThis is very cool :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for sharing your artistic stool! It belongs with a navy man for sure.
