Fab Friday Finds – Antique Piano Stool in C-Minor
Sing us a song, you’re the piano man
Sing us a song tonight
Well, we’re all in the mood for a melody
And you’ve got us feelin’ alright
Like the Piano Man, Billy Joel, I was feelin’ more than alright when I spotted this piano stool at the thrift shop.
I sang when I scooped it up …
I sang all the way up to the cash register …
and I continued singing as I drove it home and brought it straight up to my bathroom …
And much to my family’s horror, it still makes me sing – but now in the shower!
Try My Simple Bath Salts Recipe – it’s guaranteed to make you sing (or at least smile).

gorgeous! those feet are amazing!
I have one of those that was given to me. The feet fall off all the time. That doesn’t make me sing…it makes me curse!
kelly,
i could hear you singing when i opened your blog post! lol. and to think you found THS in a thrift store! love those glass feet.
I am so excited to be joining you and so many other cool gals at the conference! Thank you tons!!!
Oh – and those glass feet are awesome!
Brenda
Congratulations, Brenda! Can’t wait to meet you. And Kelly, don’t worry about the drawl. Just watch some episodes of Lizard Lick Towing and practice some colloquialisms, and you’ll fit right it.
The shoes on that baby are gorgeous! Congrats to Brenda. Have a wonderful weekend.
Much to my family’s horror, I’ll be entertaining them with my Billy Joel songlist … sung by me … and trust me, I should never, ever sing anything!
Love that stool … uh oh, I’m seeing some really bad bathroom humor on the horizon …
🙂

Now this little stool is perfect in every way! Awesome find!
Gorgeous! That is a find!
Fun find! I’ve seen some piano stools but we want a bench – for our vintage piano! Wish I could find one of those at a thrift store – I’d be singing too!
The ball feet would have sealed the deal for me! Although my husband would ask me why we needed it, i would find a reason. love it!
Love your stool in “C Minor”..but it really deserves a “A Major” rank! ….I have had no luck in finding a good one that I want for a plant stand…so my searches have definitely been in the “F Major” category!…Love yours!…Great find Kelly.
Congrats again to Brenda, the winner of the conference ticket!…Going to be a great time to be had by all!!….So glad Kelly will be appearing at the conference “in all dimensions” and not “flat”….
I swear, no blog will put a song in my head all day like yours! 😉 Fabulous find – those feet!!
A ball and claw piano stool!!! You lucky shower singer you.

Brenda…..congratulations! I can’t wait to meet you! And Kelly….what about a Billy Joel/Frank Sinatra medely at the conference 🙂

LOVE IT!!! What a great score! And it’s in such great condition. My all time favorite make-over I’ve done is a piano stool. Mine was practically falling apart when I got it so I had to put it back together. LOVE yours! Those claw feet make me sing too! Happy Friday 🙂
That is a wicked cool find, I love the idea of the dark wood and your beautiful marble. 🙂
LOVE IT! And I love the floors in your bathroom, too.
Love the stool and bath salts! Your bathroom floor is amazing! Congrats to Brenda!
What a great little stool — you could use that ANYWHERE in the house!
nevermind the stool. I love the tiles on the floor!
Ooooh…love, love, love! My mom has a claw foot table that I am waiting for…I mean, surely she will get tired of it, and want me to have it, right?
i’m obsessed with antique piano stools. i can’t believe you found this at a thrift store!
Great, now Piano Man is stuck in my head. Great find! 🙂
Lovely! I have the exact same piano stool, with the crystal feet. Mine once belonged to my great-grandparents. My mom saved it after my grandma died and boxed it up and mailed it to me from Indiana all the way to CA. I treasure it.
oh I LOVE the feet on that thing! They’re gorgeous! Great find 🙂
I’ve seen these and love them too. I wonder whoever thought of this – “let’s make a creepy claw clutching a ball for the feet of this stool”. Beautiful, but kind of strange…
Oh, also – I’m following you. Not in a stalker way. Lol
Those are the coolest little feet on a bench I have seen. I would be singing, and doing a dance. In the store, and my kids would be horrified. But it wouldn’t stop me. How fun is this find!
I passed on a cute table this weekend that had the same feet, which I’d never seen before. It was $150, and I would have gotten murdered if I’d bought it! Around here, we NEVER come across bargains like the rest of the country seems to. I think people here are too greedy! Your stool is very cool!
This is SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO awesome!!!!! But now I am going to be singing that tune ALL DAY! lol!!!! hugs and thanks for sharing at Junkin Joe! : )
What a cute idea you just gave me for extra seating, Kelly. My hubby is a composer and plays piano, so this would be perfect–thank you so much for this inspiring post. I thank you for stopping by my blog today and leaving encouraging words–it always makes my day!
I have a piano stool exactly like yours, complete with the glass ball feet! Thank you for sharing your adorable find at Potpourri Friday! Remember to leave a comment as what you would use the Home Depot gift card for to have a second entry to the Giveaway!
Kelly, this is SO cool! What a score!! I would have been dancing and singing all the way up to the cash register too!!
The stool is awesome! I would like to know how much you paid for it. Please put that info in your posts because it is one of the thrills of junking. I like to feel vicariously jealous, ha.
It was $15 Carol!
OMG!! That makes it even more thrilling!
