Wishing Well

Josh and I decided we needed to do something large again so why not a wishing well right?

This project was inspired by a similar wishing well that I saw online but like always we didn't have any plans, so we make it up as we go along.  We used 4x4 posts in the corners of the base with 2x4's along the top and bottom to make a sturdy box that wouldn't tip over with the upper weight of the roof. and covered the box with planed pallet wood.

For the roof we used more 2x4's for the t-shape on the sides and pallet wood on the cross pieces that support the leftover shingles from our new roof.  

Then you add the rod in the middle to make it look like more wishing well than just a weird box with a tall roof.  Although this picture doesn't have a bucket we did eventually add one which makes it even better.

We have made another wishing well since this one and I like it just as much. 

Hope you enjoy!
