We bought our daughter an old Werner Chicago upright piano for Christmas & the sellers threw in this bench. It didn't match the piano, but I knew it had potential!!
It was pretty rough looking.
I was thinking I had some yellow paint somewhere that I would paint it with, but couldn't find it. So, since I was able to mix my own turquoise paint last time, I thought I would try my luck with that again :)
I did not do any sanding, just a good coat of primer to start with. In my living room, where I like to do my projects in the winter ;) You can see by all the different paint colors on this lovely tablecloth that I have done this before.
Here it is. I love the color ♥♥

I used my cricut to make a stencil for the quote my daughter chose. "music is an outburst of the soul."
I think it adds a nice pop of color to the dark wood of the piano.
I am definitely ready to get back into the swing of things now that Christmas is over :)
