I think I confessed to this obsession early on. I am totally enamored of the Union Jack. (Did I hear someone say "duh"?)
A couple years ago when I lost my hair to chemo, I had an etsy artist make me a cotton headscarf using my favorite image - a watercolor style Union Jack. Lately I've been pondering how to repurpose it. I tried to use it on a vanity bench but I wasn't loving the bench's style. Then I remembered I had this little hooked rug stool, and I thought, hmmmmm.
Easy as pie! I painted the legs brown and sanded them back to show the original metallic gold. I added some foam because the seat was a little hard. To give the scarf more body I applied an iron-on interfacing. It turned out just right.
I attached the fabric to the stool and used jute for the trim and that was that. While I was working I watched a couple episodes of Nate Berkus. :-)
The colors in the scarf are rich and varied. They range from plum to aqua to olive to chocolate and back again.
Finished. All in all, a very pleasant afternoon! And I have another piece of Union Jack furniture. yay
