In a notice published Wednesday, officials with the Consumer Product Safety Commission urged people to “immediately stop using the recalled stools and return them to the nearest Hobby Lobby store for a full refund.”

The stools being recalled were described as white wood stools with curved, brown wood seats and squared-off legs painted white with “a touch of distressing.” The legs have supportive cross beams toward the bottom of the stool. They are about 24 inches tall and 15 inches wide.
