Mom & Dad’s Bench

Kelly gave Dick a pair of headboards that she purchased in Idaho, but decided she did not want them and knew he would come up with a plan for them.  We wanted to make Mom and Dad a bench for Christmas, but I wanted it to have spindles.  Waaa Laaa, this was the perfect set to make the bench.  He cut the legs down on one of them for the arms and they were perfect.

Mom is in love with red…..so we went to Home Depot and got Cranberry to paint the bench.  This was the perfect color for this cute little bench.

We glazed the bench in black and it turned out just exactly like I wanted it to.    I love this little bench.

We took the bench and spent Christmas with them.  Here the bench is at it’s new home where it will receive lots of love.  It sits perfectly under the window and you can see the most beautiful sunsets to the west.
