Fireplace Bench ❤
After seeing this sad Bench - I had to restore it! I first had to remove countless nails and staples!
I first had to remove countless nails and staples!
I then started to fill in holes with wood filler.
I then started on repairing the dog-chew damage!
Had to use lots of filler, tons of articulate sanding.
After sanding - painting in Rich Black Acrylic paint.
Then I started to distress - I really wanted the hand carved detail seen:
I purchased upholstery fabric, foam cushion. Cut fabric to fit. Machine sewn corners and top cover. I used a 1/2 piece of plywood that was cut to fit as seat support.
Please Note - the decorative nail trim is NOT completely attached, making it look uneven - not sure if it will stay or not 😀
Finished!
