I call this the old barn boot bench because it was in the porch where I always sat to put on my barn boots before I went out to work.

A few finish nails and some glue made it ready for yet another paint job.

The kids learned that just one coat didn't do the job.

Sure I helped too but it sure turned out nice looking and ready to put on many more boots and shoes. Probably not any more poopy barn boots though.
