I spent a recent sunny Saturday morning roaming various yard sales in my neighborhood.
To be honest, I was hesitant to go.
Im not a regular yard sale goer.
I was worried about insulting an owner if I would leave their sale without buying anything.
The mirror had a great oval shape and was a nice large size.
I wasnt crazy about the ornate gold frame though.
The barstools were very sturdy and would fit perfectly at my kitchen island.
I removed the tape, allowed time to dry fully and gave the mirror a good cleaning before hanging.
And voila…a boutique style decorative mirror!
This mirror found a home in my refreshedFrench Country style guest bedroom.
We used a similar process to the in ourhow to reupholster a chair seat tutorial.
I chose a heavy weight denim I had on hand and cut out exactly the same sizes and shapes.
I sewed the 2 pieces together and set aside.
I cut out a circle of the same size from new foam padding.
It fit snugly into the new sewn denim cover.
Finally, I stapled the new cover and foam padding to the stool.
Im definitely looking forward to my next treasure hunt.
What great treasures have you found at yard sales?
Pin it for later!
