Interior Wood Rack

My brother just bought house and has a large living room with a large fireplace. He needed something that would hold firewood and also was decorative. We came up with this plan after I built the Grandy Sliding Door Console. Instead of putting in shelves or doors, we put a bottom on and a back on and add the x (2x4's) in the center. We didn't know what to expect, but after finishing it and delivering it to his house, it turned out great.

Built from Plan(s)
Grandy Barn Door Console
Estimated Cost
$75-$100. Depending on what paint/screws you have on hand. If you have to buy all paint, stain, and screws, probably closer to $100. The back we used leftover ply wood from the Grandy sliding door console.
Estimated Time Investment
Weekend Project (10-20 Hours)
Finish Used
Minwax, dark walknut for the top. Then 3 coats of poly. The base is a white paint, distressed with a small amount of dark walnut stain. The base was sealed with Minwax Polycrylic.
Recommended Skill Level
Beginner

I do not have the full plans exactly. I originally built the grandy sliding media console from this site. Then I got the idea to make this firewood holder with the same concept. The only thing I did different was I didn't add any shelving inside except the very bottom shelf, and I didn't add any doors. I just used 2x4s in the center for the x's. Sorry for the late response. Hope this helps.
