We wanted to build our own custom pine wood desk top DIY style. We also wanted it to look old, since we like a rustic look in general. This is just one of many pieces of furniture we'll build on this channel with a DIY approach. We love woodworking and we're working on building most of our furniture ourselves, starting in the living room and with this desk.
Since this was our first time doing a tabletop like this, we wanted to go with cheap wood.
That's why we went with pine wood in this case because of how cheap it is. Since fresh pine boards have a pretty bright color, we experimented with different staining and painting techniques to give that rustic or vintage look as if it came from an old farmhouse.
Pine Boards Dimensions:
45 mm x 220 mm (1,7" x 8,6" roughly)
We bought two 4.2 meter boards for roughly 35 USD.
Then we basically just cut these in half and edge-glued them together.
Then it's time to apply the finish that you want. Stain, paint, or just leave it with the natural color of the wood?
