New driftwood wood burned art piece

Collecting driftwood on our trips to the beach is always fun and becomes the "hunt for the perfect piece for art".  I never know what I will make with it exactly until it's been sitting around my collections for a while. I decided to wood burn a scene on the horizontal piece but wanted to elevate it so I had my husband mount it on some dowels in to another piece of driftwood.  

Flower Pot bench DIY

Flower Pot bench DIYMy clever husband came up with this wooden bench to hold my flower pots next to our deck so we don't have to have stains on the deck from the pots leaking.  I am so grateful for this new project.  I think it worked out very well and works for our pots perfectly and he also added the see through wire railing on our lower deck to match our upper deck (which I will post soon).  Here is the process and below that will be the instructions:
