the bench

I went to the knee doctor today, while waiting in the exam room, I noticed they have new furniture. instead of chairs, it's a bench. I liked how it looked, so I said I would make one for my dollies when I get home, and I did. it has a leather seat cover, cloth back and two draws on the bottom. here it is.













thanks shirley
