      No, sorry. My dad made it and I usually just do tutorials on stuff I build myself. He made it out of plywood (it’s not traditional shiplap like I normally use on my projects).

    Your house is stunning! May I ask where you got the inserts for the pillows?
    Thank you 🙂

      Thank you! I actually just used ones I’d had previously. I’m going to guess they were probably from like Amazon or Target or something.
