Hello, hello!! I am so excited about my latest project, I’m just going to go ahead and skip the intro and get right to it, mmm k?
I covered an ugly old, chippy, begging-for-some-love ottoman with DUCT TAPE!
This was part of our old set of furniture. It was faux leather (although the sales person said it was ‘real’ grrrr), and we’ve been using it in our kid’s playroom since we moved to this house almost 3 years ago. It was fully functional, but man oh man, did it need an Oprah style makeover, and BADLY!

I love this! The color and pattern is so much fun, and I know that with the Duck Tape it’s going to be durable, too! I have a worn out ottoman in my boys’ playroom that could totally use a makeover like this!
Barbara @ Chase the Star says
Thanks Heidi! I’d love to see how you’d cover up your kid’s ottoman with Duct Tape! Can’t wait to see pix!

Love this Barbara and I can’t believe I didn’t know that there was white Duct Tape before. Your ottoman inspired me to buy a couple of rolls to try out. Excited to see you at SNAP next week!
Barbara @ Chase the Star says
Thanks Britni! Unfortunately I couldn’t make it to SNAP, but I hope you had a great time! See you next year hopefully!

Great idea! I have a vinyle chair that is in a similar state as your original ottoman. I planned to paint it using chaulk paint but then read comments that it will eventually chip off.
How is the ottoman stnading up to normal wear and tear? Do you think tape will stand up to daily use (no young kids)?
Barbara @ Chase the Star says
Hi Jen, thank you! It has withstood fairly well. I have had to replace a strip of tape here and there on the top part due to normal wear and tear, and it looks good as new. The bottom half has held up beautifully though!
