Rustic Bench

Submitted by spiceylg on Sun, 08/21/2011 - 12:10

My hubby and I built this for a fundraiser. A few challenges along the way, but lessons learned for future projects!

Estimated Cost
$15 for wood, plus primer, paint and stain
Estimated Time Investment
Day Project (6-9 Hours)
Finish Used
I'm sorry I don't have the exact names/brands of the finishes. First step was using a wood conditioner, thanx to everybody else's recommendations. The base is painted with a black satin shade from Valspar, finished with one coat of polyurethane. The top stain is named Cherrywood, not sure of what brand and finished up with three coats of polyurethane.
Recommended Skill Level
Beginner

I absolutely love this. I never even noticed it on the site before looking through your brags. Love it!
