Mini Wood Fall Bench

 Happy Wednesday! I hope you are all doing well. I have been organizing a lot lately and found some extra fence wood pieces my husband had cut for other projects. I wanted to make something simple, so I decided to create a mini fall wood bench. I love how it turned out! You'll only need a few materials and a smile on your face.


Video tutorial





Materials

Two wood sections 6¼ inches -I'm using wood pickets that I cut down to size

Eight tumbling wood blocks-You can find a box at Dollar Tree

Paint-white and brown

Paintbrush

Wood glue

Optional-Mod Podge/Decorative napkin

Scissors --to cut your napkin design to size

Start by applying paint to your two wood sections. I decided I wanted a white bench. 


Next, take your tumbling blocks and apply paint to each one. You don't have to worry about your blocks' top and bottom sections. 
After, take your blocks and glue them together. You will glue the two together. When you are done you will end up having four legs total.


Next, take your legs, and use wood glue to attach them to the bottom wood section of your bench. Be sure to allow your wood legs to completely dry.


Take the second wood section and attach it to the bottom wood section. This will serve as the back of your bench. Apply a generous amount of wood glue, and wipe away any excess adhesive. Make sure to let the wood sections dry completely.


I decided to add a little brown paint onto my bench. I added a few streaks here and there. 


You can choose to add Mod Podge and a decorative napkin to the back section of your bench. First, apply Mod Podge to the back of the bench, then place the decorative section of the napkin onto the Mod Podge. After that, apply another layer of Mod Podge over the napkin and smooth out any wrinkles. You can use a blow dryer to speed up the drying process.





Your mini Fall wood bench is complete and adorable! I hope that you enjoy this simple project. Be sure to let me know if you create your very own. I'll see you soon. Thank you so much for making it with me.
