What happens when you buy a West Elm couch that has no back? People lean back, topple over. You get your scrap Ash can build a modern style backing. For the finish, I used a black gel stain. But I wanted to add depth to the color. So I first put a merlot dye stain. Sealed it. Then then the black gel.

very good job and an excellent idea .

That looks fantastic. Is it sturdy? It looks kind of small for bracing. Great design, either way.

The cushions were designed not to need a backing. So it doesn’t have to be the main brace. But it’s pretty strong hold. I have 4 anchor points that you can’t see
