Tons of fun to build! I wanted a firmer base so I used 4x4s instead of 2x4s. I also tried a new staining method for me. I laid down a light coat of special walnut. Once that was dry, I rubbed on a somewhat thicker coat of classic grey. It kind of has a marbled effect now! I also stained the letter "C" for my friends last name using a black Walnut color. I think she turned out alright!
