And they are done! All four of them. And I even managed to paint the bar stools.
The fourth one is on the other side of the counter. There is a little niche where a wine fridge will eventually go but for now I tuck the stool under there so when I'm cooking and people are gathered at the counter I can stop and sit and sip a glass of wine with them.
Please excuse the missing bit of baseboard on the wall – our kitchen has a few details that still need finishing.
By the fourth one I had the system of assembling down. I did lightly pad the tops by sandwiching a light weight cotton batting between two pieces of material. I did that more for weight/stiffness than for comfort.
While I was working on them yesterday Belle kept hopping up on the counter and laying on everything. She thought she was helping and wanted to be in the picture too.
I LOVE your stools – what a great idea! They are perfect and I wish I could knock on your door, sit on a stool and visit with you for awhile. Hmmm, maybe – dream on! Thanks for sharing them with us. ~Adrienne~
Those are the cutest stools!
They turned out beautifully! Love your kitty!
Oh, awesome! I have a kitchen re-do in my not-to-distant future, and your bar is very inspiring. LOVE the brackets holding up the countertop! It all just looks wonderful.
Cats are very helpful creatures, aren’t they? LOL.
Your kitchen stool covers look fabulous! What a gorgeous kitchen. Thanks for the info re: Grey Gardens. I remember watching the documentary many years ago.
You have a very pretty kitchen. I love the big window and the bar stools look the perfect finishing touch.
Congrats on a great job!!! (This is also a test to see if the Typepad comment issue has been resolved!)
Oh I love it and am veryyyy impressed. Clarice

Your whole kitchen is dreamy. Love the stools, they only add to the whole magazine look of the place.
Now where’s my coffee. and which is my stool.
Those turned out so pretty! Your kitchen does look like something out of a magazine.
I love them!!! I want to do something similar for my dining room chairs. Love your kitchen too!!!
So, so cute! I wish I had a bar to make these stools! 🙂
They look fabulous!
Those look pretty snazzy!
I love your barstools! I have some like them. I am going to try to do the same to mine.

They look gorgeous. I love them, nice job!
The stools are wonderful!
Your Belle is beautiful. I find her markings surprisingly similar to our grey Belle’s markings. Of course, being beautiful is what got him the name “Belle”. Poor guy.
