    Free-standing planter box

    E. Texas red cedar with a Genral Finishes Outdoor Oil finish. Thanks for that suggestion, guys!

    WOW - very impressive. The oil really brings out the color. Didn't it hit you like that? It's pretty easy to keep it looking like that. Nice work. Your property taxes will probably go up now.

        Sure did! Looks a lot nicer than the feeders I've finished in varnish. Thanks for the suggestion!

                I need to sand down my picnic table. May have to try that finish. Really does some fantastic highlighting to the cedar. Great design on the planter. Your own?

                        That finish makes things pop Paul - great job. Also interesting the way you made it free standing thay way. Nicely done!
