Last year, I bought a footstool. I thought it would be fun to buy something old and give it a new lease of life. I never got round to doing anything with it. It just sat on the floor in the corner of my studio. When I started printing, I decided I'd get round to giving my poor footstool a new look and I FINALLY got it sorted yesterday! Footstool : Before
Footstool : After I printed the design on to the fabric, added new stuffing, nailed the fabric to the base and then added the trimming.
