The weather outside is frightful, but the fire is so delightful, and since we've no place to go, let it snow! Even if I planned to go anywhere, not today! I am snuggled in at home while a huge storm passes by. It brings with it a foot of snow (or more!) with 50 mile per hour winds.
Days like today are perfect for catching up on all sorts of indoor projects and that is exactly what I did all morning. So why not squeeze in another post before Christmas and show you what I have been up to!
Previously, I found this perfectly weathered, chippy stool in red, green and white at one of my favorite antique shops called Changing Thymes in Grandville, Michigan. Today, I picked out one of my used coffee sacks in matching green and red lettering to recover the seat top. Perfect for Christmas, don't you think?
On another note, I am super excited to be featured in the Eclectically Vintage Festive Holiday Tour! Thank-you very much, Kelly, for including our home!

Maria what a cool vintage stool!LOVE how you added the burlap too! Sounds like you got the same storm we had too! We are lucky just enough snow on the ground for white but not much stuck due to the winds!
