Grab your spray paint and glue gun!
Ohhhh, spray paint and glue guns are my favorite tools...truly! 
I want to share with you this darling little stool I made over with a can of spray paint, scrap of fabric and my handy dandy hot glue gun! (Giggle)
  I have an old tv tray that I use for many of my spray paint projects. I sprayed the legs with a flat white spray paint.
Then I use an old vintage pillowcase (scrap fabric would work as well) 
and cut it into the shape of the stool top. I tacked the fabric on and then hot glued some accent trim around the sides to give it a little extra shabby fluff!
I also fixed up a darling little chair with this sweet fabric, of course I shabbied the chair with a couple of coats of white paint and then distressed it a bit!
 Don't you just adore this sweet vintage pink rose...ohh la la!
I have beautiful lace Shabby Chic curtains all across the front of my living room windows, I will show you more soon.
Be inspired and go whip out your paint and glue!

  1. Sad, but I've been known to fix clothing with a hot glue gun, honey. I'm pathetic sometimes. ;-)

  14. Olivia,
    I just love it and that fabric is so darling!!
    You made me want to go and spray paint a bird cage that I have been putting off doing but it is really windy here today and my fence in my yard would end up with most of the paint on it today!! LOL!!

    Hopefully tomorrow!! Now where are you going to put that sweet thing??

    Hugs,
    Debbie

  16. That looks so nice Olivia, and I really like the sweet material you had used. What would we do without our glue guns????? I'm telling you I have used that baby so much... I might need to get another one.

  21. We had exactly the same number of followers, that is until I became your newest follower!!
    Love the stool, what a remake. Where ever did you get that fancy fringe! It is unbelievable. I love my glue gun and paint too. My garage floor shows it as there are different colors all over the floor, even though I put down plastic. Beautiful blog. So nice to meet you on Pink Saturday.

  22. I wish I could get inspired like you. I do believe I lost it somewhere. I never seem to do things I should anymore. Wonder if age has anything to do with it?

    Happy PS!

  27. HAPPY BELATED PINK SATURDAY OLIVIA,
    THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH FOR STOPPING BY TO SEE ME.
    THIS MAKEOVER IS STUNNING. I LOVE FRINGE.
    THIS WOULD BE A BEAUTIFUL PROJECT FOR METAMORPHIS MONDAY. I DON'T KNOW IF YOU WERE THE ONE I TOLD OR NOT BUT I USE TO USE MY GLUE GUN SO MUCH AND BURNED THE TIPS OF MY FINGERS AND HANDS AND LEGS WHERE IT DRIPPED THAT I WAS SURE IT HAD CHANGED MY FINGERPRINTS.
    HAVE A VERY LOVELY WEEK AND WHAT IS LEFT OF THE WEEKEND.
    HUGS
    SIMPLY DEBBIE
