Wife wanted a plant shelf on Amazon for $60. I said, pshh, I can build that myself. So I did. It only cost $90 and took all weekend. (lemmy.world)

Made entirely from 1x2 pine. Ripped into thirds for the shelf slats. Pocket holes. Glue. Brads and glue for the shelf slats.

Nice work! $90 and the satisfaction of having built something yourself! Did/ are you thinking of staining it given the wateringv situation?

I already coated with paste wax. Should be enough, we'll see.
