The step stool was the focus of a larger silent auction prize that featured an underwater children's theme.
I painted the entire stool with acrylic paints using stencils that I created with vellum and then sealed the stool with a poly acrylic finish.
Voila....the playful step stool sold at auction!!!
Let me know what you think.....
An adorable original "under the sea" creation...I love, love, love your work!

ReplyDeleteThat stool is adorable! I remember auctions from my teaching days. That would be adorable in a kids bathroom. My mom is also a breast cancer survivor and you ladies are a strong bunch! Best wishes for continued good health! I am a new follower from the Feature Your Sassy Sites Hop.
