Upcycled Fence Wood Turned Bench

Thanks to some recent wind and rain storms, sections of our fence have needed to be torn town and replaced. My husband always said, "It's good wood, we can't get rid of it." Not that I am trying to, but storing scraps of wood isn't easy when you don't have a large garage or yard.

Seeing this bench recently on Pinerest, I asked my hubby to use some of the fence wood to make a bench for our front porch.

Evan liked the look of it, shared he would do something similar, but have his own take on it. When I left, he and my sister-in-law's fiance had barely started, but sent me this picture while I was at my baby shower, so I knew it was coming together well!

Once they finished, it looks a little something like this:

It just needs some pillows and a cushion! I love it and we have gotten several compliments on it.
