That was a fun challenge and I love seeing my tables every time I look out onto our patio 🙂 So many great project opportunities with 2x4s!!
This collection of DIY wood projects is very inspiring. I really like the hanging nightstand and the open shelf vanity. It looks so fun to make. Thanks for sharing this.
your collection of DIY projects are insane, specially the outside bench that is great for picnic outside.
I love all these ideas. That hanging nightstand really caught my eyes. I was looking for a project and I already found one. Thank you for sharing.
