Reaching New Heights- with a toddler stool!

I made a stool for Leah to use in our kitchen. For washing hands, but also more recently for helping in the kitchen. She can now make her own sandwich (with help of course!) and likes to stir the cheese in her macaroni. "Stir, stir, stir!" she says.
I bought a plain stool off of Amazon. It was not cheap, but it was very quality. I wanted a two step stool, but you can find all kinds out there. Probably even at Hobby Lobby.
I spray painted it with primer and then hot pink. Then cut out "Leah" with my Cricut "Life's a Beach" cartridge onto brown vinyl. Then I used some extra vinyl polka dot stickers from Leah's bathroom decor. I bought these from Sunshine Decals on Etsy. Once I had placed them, I used Modge Podge to seal the letters. I had fully planned on using a clear spray paint to seal it even better, but I used it right away. After using it for about 8 months already, it's safe to say that layer of paint may not be necessary! Yay! Here is the finished product:
