I’ve heard about this one before, but didn’t really believe that it would work.
So anyway, I wanted to talk to you about this bench today because I’ve been noticing that I’ve been getting a lot of pin compliments on it lately.Like, when people pin a picture of the room, they’ll say something like “Love the bench!” I thought you should know that it’s really nothing fancy (although that doesn’t stop me from loving it) and you can have one too pretty easily, if you find it striking your fancy.. Chris actually built this for me one day when I was at work about 4 or 5 years ago.
I showed him a picture one night and he just went and built it for me the next day.It looks super cute in any space and gives off a really neat farmhousy vibe, but it’s really only 5 simple shapes, nailed together.. There’s a straight top, two “leg” pieces, and two front apron pieces.Start out by cutting yourself a top.
Our top is a basic 1×10 pine board and it’s 34 inches long..The sides are pieces of the same 1×10 board, cut to 18″ long with a little triangle notched out.
The angle of the triangle doesn’t really even matter, just eyeball it with the mitre saw and then finish off the cut with a handsaw.
Do that for both leg pieces..That’s definitely what an easy peasy, 2 minute Christmas chalkboard brings to me!.
