Bench Makeover


When I ran across this vintage bench, I knew she could be beautiful if given a little TLC. It was in great shape, but a little dated, and the upholstery, although still in tact, was stained and not my style.
I removed the cushion and the springs...

Then I painted the bench with Dixie Belle's color, Midnight Sky.
I replaced the cushion with wood and stained it with Dixie Belle's VooDoo Gel Stain in the color, Tobacco Road...


I'm in love with the end result!
She's going to be perfect in my guest room!
