Issue number One: When I posted the front bath update post a reader commented asking how we kept the stool from sliding around. At first we didn’t have a problem with that, but after some creative maneuvering on Arden’s end…we did. And for an easy solution? I picked up some Plasti Dip in black from Lowe’s and the Mr. literally dipped the legs right into the can. Voila! No more slippage.
Issue number two: The unfinished wood of the stool was kept getting stained from water and dirt. Not the prettiest sight to see. So a little more painting was in order. I used Valspar No VOC paint and primer in one in a semigloss white. It worked like a charm; water doesn’t seep into the unfinished wood and dirt stains wipe right up. Problem solved. And I think it looks cuter too!

Aren't they? And so cheap too. Yet sturdy. Love.

wow what a great transformation. I can't believe that your husband was able to get such a straight line by just dipping the leg in the can! I have always wanted to try that stuff, thanks for sharing!
