I stopped
in our local Goodwill store on Friday to just browse a bit and see if I could
find any hidden treasures or simply a bargain.
I was in the last aisle and headed toward the exit when I found this bar
stool.
I am not an expert on wood by any
means, but it looked cherry to me.
There
is some very beautiful dove-tailing of the rounded parts.
The price was definitely right.
My husband works with some very talented Amish wood
crafters. He is going to take the stool to work
tomorrow and get the top off and see what it looks like. He is
going to ask them to make some sort of a top and I am going to use it
for an occasional table. I would love to
have a round top for it, but also have a spot for a corner table if they are up to
designing something like that. Square, rectangular, it really does not matter. I will find a spot for it. I will
have after pictures just as soon as it is done!
I really love going junking, especially when I find a real bargain. Can't wait to get this repurposed!
What a find--and how lucky that you have access to skilled craftspeople who can repurpose it for you! : )
