WOW! What a difference. It looks richer being a darker color. You did a great job! 😊❤
You did a wonderful job, Sophia! The ottoman looks great in the bedroom. 💙
I like how diligent you are with prep work. That's what Ive learned from you instead of trying to jump in and rush everything
She is the best at prepping that I've seen as well. Most hurry through and don't show how tedious prepping really is.
Beautiful otterman project! Great restoration. 😊
You did a great and beautiful job. Congradulations 😊
Gorgeous job!
I think your stool turned out great. I was sort of looking forward to you ruining it but hats off to Sophia yet another time❤
Nice job. I like how nice the legs turned out.
It turned out beautiful!!
Looks lovely maybe you could put a throw over for the cats
So glad you didn't paint the legs. The stain makes the whole thing richer. This project turned out great. No one will notice the imperfections except for you. It looks great with your chair. Lay a small lap blanket on it so the cats will lay on it and not scratch it. Successful project!
Absolutely love the way you “ruined” the ottoman lol. It turned out fabulous 😻😻😻 Love Toni
so beautiful
I've seen tester videos of leather dyes and yes that Angelus navy is very dark. But it did turn out amazing, you did a great job, as always 🙂 Also, the Angelus box has two flaps on the back that you can push in, which creates a holder for the bottle.
Hi Sophia, I love what you did with the ottoman. The color is gorgeous. You find best stuff. Thanks for sharing.
Great job! Whoever tossed it missed an opportunity to give it another life but you did!
Looks very nice 🩵
I love it,Looks fabulous:-)
Sophia you are absolutely hilarious! I wonder if I am the only one who was thrilled when you realized you had to stain the feet! LOL!
BEAUTIFUL JOB BTW!!!
I have always wanted a chaise in my bedroom too.
That turned out amazingly well. I loved that you saved real furniture.
It turned out beautiful Sophia!! Love it!
Looks beautiful you are so patient with everything you do ❤❤❤
Absolutely beautiful 😍
It looks fabulous well done you Sophia
It turned out great! Looking forward to more forensic furniture flips in the future! 😀
Animals are so adaptable. As a young mother, we had the entire food chain in our house… dog, cats, hamsters, fish, birds and an ant farm. Not to mention the bears, peacocks, deer and bobcats that frequented our backyard. Memories 😊👵🏻
Beautiful! And so tasteful, really love what you achieved! ❤
Very nice job!! If you sold it I would buy it----that's how good it looks. After my husband passed this month talked with the bank today & most likely will have to sell the house at some point. May do an estate sell---just too much at this house to take because I will be down sizing.
You work miracles on your projects. It look beautiful. If you don’t want the cats scratching it cover with a throw blanket.
Sophia that was brilliant! I love your idea of ruin! Great Job!
Anything over 70 degrees is an iron maiden. Love the outcome of the labor of love.
Looks brilliant sophia the blue came through once you started with the conditioner, fab!
Great job! The kitty’s are adorable!
It looks fabulous! You did an amazing job!
Wow it looks beautiful this has to be one of my favourite projects beside the antique secretary desk and he did a beautiful job on that so this is another fantastic project by you so keep them coming because we love to see how you make things even. Better then when you get your hands on it
And you did a beautiful job on it
Dear Sophia, it seems and looks like whatever hands you get on different things and projects you only improve for the better. Just like this project, you improve this foot ottoman for the better. You can improve old furniture to look like new and repair certain stuff in the house, you build closets, flower beds, you installed tiles in the basement laundry, fixed the old fan that was complicated by removing it and replacing with the new one for boys bathroom and a lot, lot more. You are god gifted lady, very lucky and have gold hands. Meaning you are born lucky and gifted with capability to know how to do so many things around the house both men and women jobs. You are amazing, hard working lady and we are very impressed with all your hard work. We enjoy watching all your videos. You also have a very nice family as well as lovely pets. Always excited and looking forward to your next video, because you always have different videos and each is interesting in its own way and more fun to watch. We love you, Sophia and all your videos. Keep up with the great videos and different projects around the house in your spare time of course. All the best to you and your family from a family in Canada.
Thank you!!! ❤️
I love watching you "ruin" furniture. Looks fantastic. Well done
LOL. “Cat voice”, I have a cat voice too. I can’t help it!!! Lol. Your kitties are beautiful!!! I’m so happy for you.
I don't think you ruined this, I think time and sunlight will fade it to a perfect match for the chair. There's nothing like worm leather for comfort and character. Good job Sophia!
Agree! The title should be "Let's Improve a Leather Ottoman" :)
WOW!!!!!! Maybe just lay a simple white throw across to protect a little from kitties. It is now an absolutely amazing piece that you ALL will treasure. Astounding find and restoration, Sophia❤
I think it looks better in the Navy blue than in the red. The red was boring. It is just beautiful. I remember when you dyed the chair. A really pretty pair and street finds to boot! And the rug was a street find and it looks brand new. And best of all, your furniture has personality. I love it!
👏👏👏another project successfully completed. Looks great Sophia.
I found a wooden rocking horse on my street and fixed it up..a dog had chewed the massive rockers so I cut them shorter and put a new seat and foot dowel on it and it's mane was made from phentex yarn and all fuzzy so I made little braids all over the head part..lots of fun fixing it up.
It looks amazing, Sophia! I’d never have the confidence in myself to do something like that. It looks like a custom piece. ❤️
This turned out fantastic! I absolutely love it with the chair. I love the DIY projects that you do.
Best “ruination” I’ve ever seen! Nice job, Sophia!
C’est dingue de voir que l’on jette de si belles pièces à la rue, bravoure pour votre recyclage. Ce reposes-pieds méritait une seconde vie 😊 j’admire votre pugnacité , vous êtes courageuse de prendre le temps de faire tout ça , bonne fin de soirée de la vieille Europe 🇧🇪😊
Merci beaucoup. Oui les gets sont dingues et indignes. Ils n ont plus la notion de l Argent. C est tres Americain tout ca. Non?
WOW! That looks fabulous!! Free is the best!
The ottoman looks fabulous Sophia!!!
That was a fantastic diy. You never cease to amaze me. Beautiful beautiful
I loved this video! Great job on the ottoman. It really looks great! I agree with you and many just discard when can be renewed! Love the kitties 👍
"Sofia" I personally think you did a great job of transforming your foot stool, and that blue color definitely compliments the chair perfectly!
It turned out beautifully! You can always make a cover for it that matches the chair & protects it from any scratches 😊
Great job, Sophia! 🎉
Awesome ottoman it looks pretty and yes who ever threw it out sure did miss the opportunity to give it another chance
Congrats Sophia, l love it! It really looks nice with your carpet. Enjoy!😘
That turned out so nicely!!! I wish people in my neighborhood threw away stuff like that. You did a great job!
Try not to be so derogatory about yourself. It will influence others and not in a good way. You are a hard worker and can and have accomplished so much. I think the stool is beautiful in blue/black.
The kittens are adorable! Ottoman looks great, another awesome job! Thanks for sharing! Have a wonderful week! 🐈⬛🐈🙂😘😽❤
Looks great! Love your sitting area/library corner
Wow, that is spectacular! Well done.
Bravo!! You are so adventurous!!! Great outcome!! Not ruined at all!! Enjoy!!
Fabulous!😊
Beautiful job, brand new look, love seeing the kittens,
Always something to learn, looks terrific!
Oh no you ruined it & made it so much better! 😅 cute kitties 😊
Love how you save stuff! Perhaps Royal Blue and not Navy Blue? A great footstool for the reading nook nonetheless. Great job Sophia.
Love the ottoman and no wonder your tired, Sophia.
When it is cooler I would love to see a picture of you reading a book with a cuppa tea, feet up on your ottoman. Where did you order the leather stain from?
Amazon. It s under $12.
Absolutely beautiful Sophia!!! What a great find. Love your cozy room with chair, ottoman and bookshelf! Kitties are adorable.
Hi from SC. 107 here by Thursday.
Blue velvet cover would be so pretty. Can't wait to see the out come. Commenting before I watch.
I’m born and bred in North Carolina and you have a prized posession from Hickory Chair!!! Treasure it👏👏👏
I figure it came with a matching chair. Maybe one day I ll find thr chair too! I shall stay on the lookout!
Hi Sophia. The stool looks great. FYI Angelus also makes leather paint in many colours.
FABULOUS!
Absolutely amazing!!!!!
Wow what a transformation sophia you always underestimate yourself it looks wonderful
Sophia, you might try placing a towel over the stains and then heat your iron to about medium and go over it and see if that might help draw some of them out! I have done that with candle wax and it has worked great!! It will be beautiful!!!
It looks amazing and it is more blue, looks great with chair and your rug!!!
It looks great! Love seeing your cats 😊 they are so precious. Enjoy your ottoman ❤
Oh, Sophia, that turned out lovely.
that a stunning piece! beautiful!
It’s beautiful! 👍👏🏻
The foot stool looks really great. You gave it another lease of life and it will hopefully last you several more years. Personally, I think it looks so much better blue. However, I could be biased because I have a matching pair of blue charger leather & wood sofas, one is a two seater and the other seats three. Plus, I also have a matching chair and foot stool. I have had them 25 years now and they all still look in really great condition. To clean them I use water with a little drop of lemon dish soap and a squeeze of real lemon, followed by professional leather cleaning cream. Then I buff them with a leather wax containing built in moisturising conditioner, which polishes them to a great shine. The three seater sofa does have some tiny little scratches from when we had our dogs, which I just disguised by colouring them over with a little blue sharpie. I have decided this year I am going to use a proper leather dye pen to fill them in instead. If they ever start to look their age, I am definitely going to try doing what you have done with your thrifted foot stool, so thank you Sophia for demonstrating your method so clearly.
Lovely! Looks so great in the room

Terrific job. Ottoman looks great.
What a wonderful find! Perfect for your bedroom!
Outstanding result. Looks regal.
I love that ottoman so much!!! You did a fantastic job on it❤ love your cats, we have three.
I love watching you do these projects! Good Job
Such patience... Real good job enjoy it now
Yes, wonderful job, it’s very beautiful.
The ottoman looks wonderful ❤❤❤
Hi Sophia! It's awesome. And adorable kitties. 💜💜💜
The title cracked me up😂 I've been dying to try this myself
Amazing job! It looks wonderful. I need some of your energy. You are definitely getting things done.
I enjoyed this - I think your efforts paid off Sophia! For future restoration/cleaning projects of porous, delicate or hard to clean materials like leather,, stone, wood and textiles, you could look into Fuller's earth which I think is Terre à Foulon or Terre de Sommières in French. It's a traditional. cleaning product, the kind of thing our grandmothers used. Great for removing grease.
Looks good.🙂
I love the ottoman! It looks fabulous!!
Looks great!!!
It turned out beautiful! Love your kitties...so cute❤
What a fabulous find! You did a beautiful job!
