the $15 bedroom bench

So also on the wishlist was a bedroom bench to sit at the end of the guest bed for people to be able to stick their luggage on when they stay and these things don't come cheap...$200 up for nice ones.

And then I found this little beauty in a charity shop for $15. Sweet.

Essentially in great shape, just a little scratched and not in need of much except it was FILTHY 

So I got to work with a some fairy liquid, water and an old toothbrush. My cat even tried to help, kind of...

Then i just touched up the legs with white paint and in less than 1 hour it was good as new and sitting pride of place at the bottom of the bed 

I do like it as it is with the clean white leather but the question is, to reupholster or not to reupholster? Thoughts?
