A Simple Ottoman


This small, vintage ottoman was salvaged from a local thrift shop.  


When I found it, it was upholstered with black, dirty leather.  The wood sides were even covered with leather and I pulled out excessive amounts of staples trying to remove the leather.


I found this simple, geometric patterned fabric at my local fabric shop.


The foam underneath the leather was in excellent condition, so I just stapled the new fabric to the top.  I painted the bench with two coats of Pure White Chalk Paint and then a coat of Annie Sloan clear wax.


It looks like a fresh, new piece now!

Your ottoman turned out great! I love the fabric you chose.

What an amazing redo. They don't look like the same piece. The white paint fixed the legs, and great choice on the fabric.
