A Number Stencil Industrial Stool Makeover!

Two Stools Number Stencil Makeover

(This post contains affiliate links. Links provided for your convenience to source products used in this tutorial.)

This is the photo (below) where I realised I should have taken a “Before photo” to show you what they looked like. Anyhow … this is Celia helping me by painting the bases of the two ordinary pine stools in Fusion’s Coal Black.

Coal Black on base of two stools.

And here they are with the seats on top all sanded back to raw wood, so that I could work on them for a Facebook Live I did for Essential Stencil as one of their ambassadors.

2 stools ready for stencilling the tops.

I used the Number Stencil set from Essential Stencil which comes with all the numbers ranging from zero through to nine, so that you can make any large numbers you like.

video tutorial on number stencils

In the following video tutorial, I show you how I stencil the numbers onto the surface and then how I stained the timber AFTER I stencilled the numbers on. The video is a replay of a live tutorial I did for Essential Stencil’s Facebook page, so you will also get to hear my answers to some of the viewer questions that were asked during the live.

I love how they turned out, transforming these old varnished stools into a more modern industrial farmhouse style.

As you’ll see in the video above, I used Fusion’s Stain & Finishing Oil on top of the stencilled seats. The ratio used for this colour was 1:1 of Cappuccino & Natural (ie. 1 part Cappuccino mixed with 1 part Natural)

Instagram post 2194905526155138921_979629146 How cute are these drawers that my assistant and I made over?! My assistant brought in this roadside find, covered in stickers and scratches and some undesirable words etched into drawers.

Celia shares my love for finding old pieces and bringing them back to life again, and she saw the potential in this one minus all it’s teenage “attitude”. The inspiration for this makeover came from @jen_girlinthegarage’s “Amazing Furniture Makeovers” book.

Instagram post 2193369048817747984_979629146 We celebrated the life of my much loved and well lived Grandpa yesterday after his passing last week. What a beautiful celebration of his life and a great legacy he has left for his children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren and yes, even great-great-grandchildren! 
About 10 years ago he even took the time to write his life’s journey in a book which we will cherish forever. 
Grandpa was my last living grandparent, a sad end of an era/generation. 
Do you have a favourite memory or keepsake from a grandparent that you treasure? ♥️
Instagram post 2192764916536751933_979629146 #repost • @fusionmineralpaint Say hello to December's Color Story from Fusion Mineral Paint! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If there's anything we've learned from our Fusion customers and fans this year, it's that you're loving the pinks and grey paints the most. They're definitely a favorite of Fusion Creator @jennylynpringle because they feel fresh, yet serene. Combined with white and green and that touch of metallic gold sparkle, the result is a perfect soft and elegant color palette to decorate for the season!⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
We know winter can feel long, so sometimes it's nice to revel in some magic in the air. In a very busy month, surrounding oneself with colors that bring calm, can be a wonderful gift both to give and receive.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
