Small step stool.

Post by rpd »

This weekends project, a small step stool for my Daughters Birthday.
She sews most of her own clothes and wanted a small stool to stand on while have hems pinned.

And here she is giving it a test run. She knit the socks and sewed that skirt. :)

Nice work!

Of all the stuff I made around the house, a gardening stool sort of like that gets used the most...

Nice project. I've made a few small step stools myself. My Wife wanted one for the high cupboards in the kitchen, and years ago my Mother wanted one too. They are so handy anytime you need a bit more reach.
I'm sure yours will be used a lot and appreciated.

That is beautiful! Nice to see sewing projects being done still. Kind of a dying art ....

That's a winner! I made one like that for my wife's gardening seat, and it's been going for over 10 years.

Great work

It's so cute and excellent. Surely it will be a special gift that the little girl will love. It looks so shiny and beautiful. So I wonder What is the best wood for a step stool?
