Martha's Tree Bench!

I've been so crazy busy lately, sorry it's taken me so long to get back here.....

Finally got my Martha tree bench done. We used cedar wood, and I used BEHR Paint Plus Primer all in one, and I have to say it is great stuff! The first time I painted it, the color was a bit more yellowish, so I went back and had them re-tint it by adding more brown until I was happy with it. I think it looks better now....

I liked the way the brackets turned out....simple yet elegant!

Here is another angle...At first I had a ledge at the back close to the tree itself, but took it off, it looked too bulky or something. Yes, I am completely neurotic!!! But if it feels odd to me, I have to figure out why..... I think I got it, finally.

You can see here how it matches the house and garage trim.

Hope you like it.... now on to finish another one of my projects that I started....my bookcase, so close to being done that! Tell me what you think and about any of your projects on the go!
