After. The blue paint really does match the fabric, though it doesn't look like it so much, here. Hey, would I lie to you? |
The thing with redoing furniture is you always have lots of stuff to choose from if you get tired of what's in your house! I found the bench in Goodwill for $15. About 5 times more than I like to pay for furniture! But I haven't come across very many of these, so I snatched it up. The bottom of the drawer needed a little reinforcement, but otherwise it was in great shape. I recovered the seat, painted it white and blue, and the boys used it for a reading seat and toy storage. Until one day the boys got a workbench and it was in the perfect spot.... so to Craigslist it went. Made a nice little profit on it, too! Always a plus!
I never find things like that at Goodwill. It looks great!
