barn stools

I had to show you the new vintage stools: all in a row at the barn counter. I'm head over heels in love with them! My mom thinks these stools are the best Mother's Day present I've ever given her! She especially loves that I found them on the side of the road for pennies. Yeah!
They were created for the mid-century scientist sitting in his/her lab all day... so comfort and back support were essential to the design. They are also fully adjustable, which means that they'll travel upstairs to the studio table for workshops.


Like I said, I'm in love! Pin It

    Top notch stools, and more than just one. They're sooo good. Did you have to do much to them? Do they still work OK?

    I am in love times three and a million. Three for the stools and a million for every thing big and small that your mom and you have so carefully, lovingly collected for that artful living space.
    I wonder what kind of amazing experiments will go on at that laboratory bench :)

    Great find, I am in love too especially since they are now for fun and no longer for work!!! (well "work-work" that is as opposed to the "fun-work" that will be had in them) You and your mom are gals after my own heart with these fabulous finds!

    I just checked out Margie's post-trip post, and I can't help but think of kismet when I see you and Margie making these finds. Those stools *belong* in the barn, and they were just waiting for you to drive on by and pick them up.

    :::swooon::: it looks like the stools were just made for the barn! They are so charming, thoughtfully designed, and contain that vintage industrial appeal that is irresistible to me.
