Yikes! This $3 garage sale piano bench was filthy and smelled. Of course, that didn't keep me away! I bought it at a garage sale in Big Bear, CA and brought it all the way back to Las Vegas, much to my husband's dismay. :)
$17 in supplies and about two hours worth of labor and it looks amazing!
First, I unscrewed the padded seat and threw everything away except the wood. I sanded the wood and then washed off all the dust.
Next, I gave the wood two coats of spray paint. As that was drying, I covered the bench wood with padding and material and used a staple gun to attach both to the back.
Lastly, I re-screwed the bench back on top of the base. It looked slightly plain, so I hot glued the fringe around the perimeter.
I love it!
