Queen Bee Stool

I purchased these wood bar stools recently thinking that they all were the same size. I had visions of making them a set. Well they were not and thus I had to go to plan B and decide on what to do with them individually. Since my boss is away at Round Top I decided this was a good time to get my many projects done. Today I tackled one of the stools.

Here is my Queen Bee stool! 

I used paint markers to hand draw the design on top of the stool and also gave it a white washed antique look.

The finish is a mix of regular paint and chalk paint. I just love how it turned out. Now what to do with the other three stools? Hmmm....
Thanx for stopping by!

    I say you stick with the theme...maybe a butterfly, a dragonfly, and a ladybug!

    It looks great! I just saw four on our kijiji and I was thinking of asking about them. Now I definitely will.

    These are darling Pamela! I love how they turned out- well done!! Thanks for linking up at Feathered Nest Friday!! (btw- I tried linking up again at your party a couple more times- it keeps giving me the same error message. I even re-did the link back at my post. Frustrating!!! Oh well- just know that I planned to join in the fun at your place! I'll try again next week!)
