Gas station inspired stool

On our last outing to the flea market we found this little beauty....
I love stuff like this...lots of patina...chippy paint in several layers...
Here's how she looks now--
 My husband is into hotrods (and all things related) so we thought it might be fun to do something along those lines....
 I was thrilled with how great it turned out.
 And we clear coated it to seal it all up so it's a little more user friendly...
Overall a pretty sweet little find!  She's already at Winsome Cottage waiting to be taken to a new home....

  3. This will surely sell. I love it. We (said very loosely) grind down the top and it has these neat swirly patterns on them. I really like the painted designs on this one, though.
