Steal This Look: DIY Entryway with Hairpin Leg Bench

August 3, 2010

Angela Ferdig of Kriselkeeper recently posted on her DIY entryway bench project, which was "inspired by the Nakashima table in Steal This Look: Julianne Moore's West Village Living Room on Remodelista," she says. "My much less pricey DIY bench, which consists of a piece of reclaimed wood and four hairpin legs, cost a total of $109." Read more about the project on The Stir at Cafe Mom; recreate the look with the following elements.
