About This Project

my first project and I am thrilled with the results. This was a Christmas gift for my daughter and son in law. I wanted something a bit rustic looking so I used inexpensive 'whitewood' and one light coat of stain (Cabernet) that I wiped off right away, then sanded the edges down. I loved using some of the tools my dad has given me.

From Plan (new): 
5 Board Bench
Estimated Cost: 
$26.00
Estimated Time Investment: 
Afternoon Project (3-6 Hours)
Required Skill Level: 
Starter Project
Type of Wood: 
'whitewood' (cheap grade pine)
Finish Used: 
'Cabernet' (Can't recall the brand) 1 light coat and wiped off immediately. I just used what was on the rag to wipe the top board as I did not want it too dark.
