I found this stool for half price at a thrift store, which is almost nothing (or, $1.50) and loved the legs and the lines but not so much the shiny chrome and the heart-shaped back rest.

At least no books were harmed in the making of this project.
On to the project! Here is the fancy-schmancy stool in all it's glory:
I just sawed off the heart-shaped back with a hacksaw and unscrewed the seat in order to paint it. Two coats of Rustoleum oil rubbed bronze later, the stool looked like the one below:
