Toadstool

After several attempts of trying to teach my boyfriend that the coffee table is not a footstool, I finally decided to make a toadstool. With just hijacking a few IKEA items, and sewing a "toad shower cap", my glass coffee table is now foot print free.

Tutorial
You will need the following items from IKEA. A childrens stool (we are just using the top, so you may get rid of the legs) and a plastic vase.

Children Stool
Plastic vase

Connect the vase to the top circle. I used a glue gun. You should now have this.

Sew a circular pillow for cushioning. It will not be seen so you can use any scrap fabric you have.

Sew a big red shower cap. Embellish it with big white circles.

Fit the pillow on top of the stool, and cover it up with the red "shower cap". Sit down on your couch, and pop your footsies on it.


Note: This toadstool is designed for use as a footstool. If using it as a childrens stool, I will not be liable for any injuries.
