If you are a regular reader, you know I just painted this stool, just a few days ago, Friday to be exact...
You are probably wondering why I'm doing a seperate post, it is just a stool afterall, but because I'm some kind of camera junkie, I take pictures.of.every.single.thing.....and I decided to do an addition to the stool
As you know, I started with a 3.00 Goodwill stool
Using left over wall paint, I gave it two good coats and distressed the edges with black paint (see part I)
and for a whole day, I was happy with the results
I thought it turned out terrific
But then I decided to take another look at that top...it needed sumpin'
Here's What I Did:
~I printed a "3" using the Engravers Font, sized at 450, on my word processor
~Using a blunt pencil, or an embossing tool, I traced the number on center of the stool
Sitting in the right light, it was very easy to fill the number in with black paint using a very small brush....
oh yeah, and a steady hand!
Ok, I think I'm happy...maybe!! :)
So, from this:
To this:
Thanks for stopping by to take another look!
I don't think there will be a Part III!
