Striped Bench

I found this piano bench a few months ago and it has been siting in my workshop for awhile waiting......  
Before:

As you can see it had some issues but also has good lines.  I didn't want to fix the veneer problems and wanted to make a padded bench so I pulled out some foam and cut it to size.  I next picked out my fabric and decided to go with a beachy blue striped heavy upholstery fabric that I had in my stash.  I mixed up creamy white

home-made chalk paint and painted the bench.  After distressing a little I waxed. 

 I nailed shut the bunch so the top would not move.  After gluing on the foam with spray adhesive I got to upholstering the bench.  When it was done I thought it needed something else for interest and I love pom poms so I added them to the bench.  

I like how it turned out!
