I needed additional seating for my dining room table and wanted something a little unusual. When I saw the vintage pew bench, I loved it. After looking at the plans, I determined I could alter the arm height so we could use it at our dining table. Now that we have moved, we no longer need it at our dining table, so it now sits in our entry. It has been a great multifunctional piece.

Thanks Ana! It is a
Thanks Ana! It is a painting. I bought it in South Korea while we were living there.
I may be able to track a canvas down for you, though. You would have to get it stretched...it would be too large to ship. I have a friend who is living there now. ;-)

Arm height
What's the new arm height? I'm going to TRY to adapt this to a 60" bench with two drawers, and the lower arms.
