Tuck away all of your craft essentials in an upcycled Piano Stool. Finding space for your ever-growing stash can be tricky, so when Corinne Bradd brought this clever upcycling project into Sew HQ, we were simply blown away! She has taken a piano stool, with a seat that lifts to reveal space for sheet music, and transformed it into a stunning piece of dual-purpose furniture by painting the woodwork a bright pink and reupholstering it with colourful patchwork.

Essentials

  • Fabric, cotton print
  • Wadding (optional)
  • Old upholstered piano stool
  • Clear furniture finishing wax
  • Dusky pink chalk paint
  • Soft 4cm paint brush
  • Staple gun
  • Sandpaper
