Stump stool

Stump stool

I had a vision for this footstool in my head over the holidays. Luckily, there was a decent stump in the woodpile (once I removed the bugs) and Mr. H is handy with a chain saw to trim the stump and then a lathe to make the feet.

All I did was mess up the upholstery and paint the feet yellow. It's kind of shedding bark all over the floor but I still like it.

Mr. H thinks I'm nuts but I see I'm not the only person putting a stump to use. Too bad California pine tree stumps aren't half as cool as African stumps appear to be.
