  • My blog office! Which was once the dining room. I knew the dining room needed to go when I ended up dusting it weekly rather than using it. Now I use the space 'too much!' :)
  • The build couldn't have been easier. Sawhorses for the legs and an old ladder for the frame was a great start.
  • For the top, I painted out the pallet boards with some signage so the top would look like it was randomly pieced together even moreso.

  • The humble beginnings. My goal was to spend as little money as possible on this.
  • Completely torn down to the bones. (cut the arms down, took off supports in the back, but forgot to take a picture of all of that)
  • Slats and arms put in, and primed! The slats were made of extra wood we had, and the arm rests were part of the original rounded arm rest. My DH reinforced the back with 2x4's for extra support.
