What
about painting the barstool?
That's
what I asked myself this morning.
(I
know, as if I sit around all day with nothing to do)
The
thing is that I have wanted to paint those for a long time.
I
like the reddish wood color, but I was ready for a change.
The
barstools came from my mother in law, and few years later we bought
our black table and chairs. Now the stools are black too.
Now
I just need to repaint our kitchen cabinets...but that is project for
another day/week/month/year?
This
was a no cost project for me.
The
quart chalkboard paint was only $10, and I have used it for several
projects around the house. (and still have 1/2 can left!)
Few examples of how I used chalkboard paint:
the cardboard boxes in our school room
and
the coat rack in our entryway

Stay Frugal,
They look really nice, Daniela! They look nice before but I'm always happy with the changes paint brings!

Good Evening Daniela, The paint you chose has totally changed the look of the chairs, and at such a cheap price aswell. It's amazing what you can achieve with a change of colour. Hope you have had a good day. Best Wishes Daphne
ReplyDeleteI love them black!
ReplyDeletethey look so satin like, love that color, those are nice stools!!
ReplyDeleteI've thought to do this but just didn't know how it would wear on furniture. Yours look great and goes so well with your table and chairs!
ReplyDeleteNice! I like the matte finish. Did you have to seal or varnish the stool after painting it?
ReplyDeleteIt is always good to use what you've got!
ReplyDeleteThey look good! And it is fun to make a change without having to go out and spend $$!
ReplyDeleteYou know, I thought those stools looked familiar! Ha! I really like them painted black. I think that is a better color in your home and more current for today.
ReplyDeletewhat a great idea, do you have to use primer with chalkboard paint?

The barstools look great, Daniela. I love being able to complete a project with supplies on hand too. I Painted some second hand barstools aqua ( they have black seats) and loved the results too. Wishing you a great weekend.

ReplyDeleteIt's always fun to have a change and painting is an easy way to do that. Your stools turned out great.
