DIMy: Reclaimed Wood Bench

ReadyMade magazine recently featured an article about a Greenpoint couple and their awesome home.  They have several rustic benches made from old floor joists and hairpin legs.

When we put down flooring in our attic and found about 10 pieces of cool-looking, sturdy wood original to the house (circa 1900) if got me thinking...why not put it on display?

 

eeep. look at that siding. better put that on the list of things to fix.

Supplies

• (4) hairpin legs
• old piece of wood
• wood screws
• Butcher's clear paste wax

Cost:  $0-$62 depending on what supplies you can find, recycle, trade or already had.
