Found it on the curb, and I liked the design. Looks like solid wood, but the joints are all coming apart and look tricky to reinforce. Would you bother?

Haha it wasn't sturdy when it was new, what a design. I guess it'd be okay for small children (reaching sink to brush teeth, that sort of thing.). I'd still reinforce because that one time an adult steps on it's gonna bear trap their legs.

That said, this would be super neat as like a planter holder or something - pure decoration. A fresh coat of something to make the character lines pop. I'm amateur as it gets and would probably varathane it lol so don't ask me how.

I like the idea of using it as a small decorative shelf, thanks.
