Hi, everyone! HAPPY FRIDAY!! Today I am guest blogging at the SITSGirls blog, where I am sharing how to make a quick and easy plant stand from a simple bar stool. My daughters love taking care of plants, so they have a few of their own houseplants in their room. They both needed a plant stand so their plants could be placed in front of their bedroom windows and get some much needed sunlight!
This project was so simple — I simply decorated the top of each bar stool with some scrapbook paper and a little Mod Podge. I wrapped some twine around the rungs at the bottom of each bar stool to create a shelf. My daughters love to place their journals and latest reads on those rungs!
This project is similar to one I completed a few months ago, when I Mod Podged an inexpensive stool to create a pretty side table for my home’s living room!
For my full plant stand tutorial, check out my post on the SITSGirls blog!

Love the scrapbook paper you chose for this project. What a difference it makes to a simple wooden stool. 🙂

Thanks, Carrie! You should try it! You can get a bar stool for less than $20 at Target. I might have to make another one for my home’s kitchen! Thanks for stopping by!

This is great! I read your tutorial over on the SITS blog and thought I’d leave a comment here. I am so going to be doing this when I get paid again next week. I have a couple of plants that need some more sunlight and this is a great tutorial. Thank you!
