Today is Metamorphosis Monday and Tweak it Tuesday so I want to show you our garden bench project makeover from an old wooden bed.
sure my husband would be up for a little DIY project. And sure enough the same week he cut the foot board in half and used the wooden side rails for the seat-he had to add one pine board at the back to have enough. One side rail went across the front underneath. He built a frame inside under the seat with 2 by 4's and screwed it all together.
I picked a beautiful garden bouquet for you and used my old antique pitcher.I am joining BNOTP for Metamorphosis Monday.
Also, joining Cozy Little House for Tweak it Tuesday.

SO clever! And gorgeous too! I'm all admiration.
Love the color. Great transformation!!
I knew your hubby could work with wood, this is fabulous! He's clever to foresee the possibilities of an old bed frame.

Beautiful bench! The flowers in the pitcher are so lovely!
Hi Carolyn. I love it. We are so blessed to have husbands that are so smart. Susan
Carolyn, that is a beautiful bench! Andrew is a great carpenter/builder to make that out of an old bed.
I absolutely love your bench - how creative! Your whole blog is so lovely, thanks so much for sharing your wonderful talent!
Hello Carolyn,
wonderful your little bench.
I built such a bench last year.
You can find it on a post of mine with the title: Verwandlungskünstler.
It wasn't finished there, but now
it is. I'll show that soon.

Great idea to change the bed in a beautiful bench, your husband did a great job. Lovely antique pitcher you used for the gorgeous bouquet of gardenflowers.
Fabulous!!! Gorgeous. I will be searching out old beds in my yard sales. My hubby could do that too.

Love this bench. So pretty and so clever, it even looks like a project that I could do. Thanks for sharing such great inspiration.
Love this Carolyn. I got a headboard in the soring (no footboard) but haven't had the nerve to start a bench yet. Maybe it's a winter project for me....J
Carolyn, it's gorgeous! Just a perfect idea! Thank you for sharing. I would love it if you would share this at my Make it Pretty Monday party at The Dedicated House which is still live.
