Functional... very. Pretty... not so much. The cheapskate in me could not see buying another stool. No matter how much I disliked the current one.
Rhonda has such great ideas and when I saw the transformation of her plastic stools I pinned the idea for later. This was on the to do list before Christmas and finally made it to the top.
I am a happy girl to see the dated blue go bye bye.
May your day be filled with joy and contentment!

It's amazing to me what a can of spray paint can do! It's a do-it-yourselfer's best friend. :)
I keep cans of spray paint here...especially my favorites - black and the rusty textured one (can't remember what it's called). They work wonders!
I love it your stool. Now Megan can step up in style. :)
Thanks for participating in Pinned it Made it Monday, Wendi.
Have a great week,

That was supposed to say - I love your stool (an "it" made its way in there). :)

We have those same kind of stools but ours are a charcoal grey so they blend in pretty well!
Good job! As you know, I love spray paint too!
Nice job! and you got yours free? how fun!
I have 2 of the same blue stool, and one I picked from my neighbor's curb. I would love to get rid of the blue, too. Did you use spray paint specifically for plastic? How many coats did it take?
I have a blue stool just like yours. Great idea. Thanks for sharing. It is amazing what a coat of fresh paint can do. God bless.
What kind of paint did you use? I've been wanting to do this too.
I used Rust-oleum Universal Advanced Formula Metallic paint & primer in one. It says for any surface, any angle and then list wood, metal, plastic and masonry as some of the surfaces it covers. I used oil rubbed bronze and it took two coats. I purchased a new bottle for this project and I have plenty of paint left for several more projects.
Great idea! Spray paint is inexpensive and changes the look so much!
