Stools

Frosta stools can be hacked for a more creative and fun look: you can paint them in various colors, use stencils, color block, add colors that you like or that fir your interiors. You can make them fruit-like or cloud-like for a kid’s room, or cover it with chalkboard paint to let your kids chalk on them. Upholstering the stools is another great idea to add them comfort and warmth: upholstery can be crocheted, it can be just some fabric you like or it can be faux fur, which is especially popular for winter. Turn your stool in what you need and like, no limits for your imagination!

Tables

Frosta stools can be easily turned into bedside or coffee tables. You can change legs or the top if you want some different design, stencil, paint or spray paint the tables according to the colors and design you want to have. Be creative with kid’s tables: paint them using your kids’ favorite characters and cartoons; as for your own bedside table, you can make it with a double top to accommodate more things. Hack the stool making it rustic and shabby chic, or substitute the top for a cool glass one. Need a plant stand? Just take a Frosta stool and a Nasum basket or Aptitlig board to make a plant stand that can accommodate a lot of greenery and flowers.

Other Ideas

Frosta stools can be turned into an unlimited number of furniture and other pieces, almost everything you can imagine! My favorite is a laptop stand by the sofa, so comfy to relax in the evening watching something. A wall-mounted shelf looking like a tree can be made of several Frosta stools, and you can also make a hanger with legs for your entryway. Need a magazine or firewood holder? Take a Frosta stool and turn it over to get one! Benches, swings, hanging shelves, even lamps – these stools are magical!
