Facebook Marketplace Stool Update – BREPURPOSED

Continuing my quest for the perfect counter stools, I came across some potential options that were close but not quite right. While waiting for my dream stools to appear, I settled for some temporary stand-ins from Facebook Marketplace. Here’s how I transformed them:

Black and Wicker Counter Stools

I scored these stools for $25 each on Facebook Marketplace, where I still hold out hope of finding the perfect vintage pieces. Despite not being ideal, Marketplace can yield some hidden gems if you’re patient and persistent in your search.

To make these temporary stools more to my liking, I embarked on a series of experiments:

  1. Attempted the oven cleaner method to remove the stain, which unfortunately failed to produce any noticeable results.

Modern Traditional Counter Stools

  1. Experimented with gel stain over the existing finish, which also proved unsuccessful.

Refinishing Wooden Kitchen Stools

  1. Opted for spray painting one stool black, which didn’t meet my expectations.
  2. Attempted sanding one stool down to raw wood, resulting in a pretty but undesired look.

Stool Makeover

  1. Experimented with various stains, gels, waxes, and paints, all of which ended in failure.
  2. Ultimately settled on spray painting all the stools black, despite initial reservations.

While these stools aren’t my dream design, they serve their purpose for now, providing seating for my children at the counter. The DIY process, though challenging, is ultimately rewarding and a valuable learning experience. Each setback only fuels my determination to keep experimenting until I achieve the desired outcome.

Embracing the challenges and setbacks in DIY projects is all part of the journey. Despite the bumps along the way, perseverance and adaptability are key to achieving success. These may not be my ideal stools, but they serve their purpose for now, and the process of transformation is what makes DIY projects so fulfilling.

Remember, not every project goes smoothly, and that’s okay. The journey is just as important as the destination, and the lessons learned along the way only make the end result that much more satisfying.
