BEFORE and AFTER
We bought these cheap footstools a decade ago while shopping for stuff to set up an apartment we leased here in Sicily. The poor things have been moved/stored and beat-up ever since, including being recovered with cheap colored packing tape when the inexpensive vinyl covering faded or flaked off as you can see above.
We looked for replacements all over, but there were none to be found, so we asked around about getting 'em recovered locally. Our friends HERE who have made some custom leather bits for us over the years suggested we try a local place, Caschetti Tendaggi, so Zio rode his shopping bike over there with the top photo to see if they would recover 'em?
"Of course!" was their reply so over the course of a couple of days the two were delivered. Two weeks later we hopped on the shopping bikes so we could bring both back in one trip. We're pretty happy with the way they turned out and how simple it was to get done.
