Someone else's trash makes another person's treasure! Isn't that how the saying goes? My parents were getting ready to trash their vintage vanity stool. I decided to repurpose the stool because it was sturdy and was in great shape. Aside from it's lack of appearance with the duck taped white-pleather cushion, I saw tons of potential! I went to JoAnne's Fabric and purchased 1.5 yards. It just so happens that the fabric I selected was 50% off. I got it for $10. I reused the original foam because it was in good condition and didn't need extra padding.

The end result came out great! It only took a few dollars, a little bit of fabric, and some time to bring this stool back to life. What do you think of the before and after pictures?
