I should have taken a before picture. This was an orange velour footstool from the dark ages, I think. It stunk like smoke and looked pretty bad. I got it free from a neighbor's garage sale. The kids have enjoyed using it as a trampoline, but I decided to try my hand at reupholstering it and actually using it in a productive manner. Here's the final product. The original had a skirt that went to the floor, but I decided to omit that part. This is far from perfect and it's a bit wiggly on the edges, but once there's snot smeared on it, and dirty feet have left their mark, who's going to notice?!
