Many of you all know that I'm a recent empty nester. My children are all young adults in college or married sometimes it's a little sad. I miss the sleepovers, ballgames, school activities even if it was a little chaotic at times it was well worth it.
With that said I thought I would show you a little project that I finished that has to do with youngsters. I saw a couple of these stools at the thrift store the other day, it's one of those army green camp stools. As I carried them up to the register the hubs said okay now what???
Ya a timeout chair that's what!!! These stools are the perfect size to sit those little rascals on when they're being naughty. Super easy I just dry brush watered down white paint, grabbed some drop cloth fabric stenciled timeout and a clock on it and ...bam done. I did sew a straight seam on the sides I didn't want it to fray.
Love it!!! Wish I had some youngins to put on it.... oh well off to Simply Vintage it goes!!!
