Cinder Block Bench

Week 23

This week I made a bench using cinder blocks, a couple of 4x4s, some left over paint and a recycled bench cushion.  I got the idea from Pinterest.com,  and added my own adjustments. I used the same paint that I used for the wood swing and rocking chair a couple weeks ago to match and make our backyard deck/porch pop with color.  Next week I will be transforming barstools into end tables in matching colors to complete my outside decor.
Here is what I used:
10 cinder blocks
Left over Semi gloss Exterior paint
2 4x4x8s sawed in half
Bench cushion from thrift store
2 Outside pillows on sale
Total cost: $40 and half of that was just on the pillows.
