The Ikea Frosta stool is one of my favourite pieces: it has a nice and simple design, the shape is minimal and it fits in any room. And the best part is that is very easy to customize {check here}.
For this DIY I decided to paint the top using a off white paint {a leftover from the one used for the stairs} and then decorate it with a graphic pattern. Looking for the right inspiration I came across a picture I made in Paris at Maison&Objet at the House of Rym exposition. The fir-trees pattern is exactly what I had in mind! I simply reproduced the design using a black lasting marker. Easy and effective!
And if you like the garland, you can downloaded for free here on House of Rym website.




Great idea! Love the fact that you can paint these stool tops, or legs, or crochet them a cover for an individual look but hadn't thought of using a pen…
I have two Frosta which I bought after I bought the crocheted covers from you!And I love them with the covers!AriadnefromGreece!

Beautiful! I have three in my kitchen. Last time I made a decoupage in the stool tops but at the moment they need another refresh and your suggestion it's great. Ah and I love the garland! It will look fantastic in my caravan 😉
