Instantly improve your home's curb appeal by making a modern decorative wood column to cover up an existing wrought iron column.
In this brief tutorial I show the basic steps to assess, plan and build a wood column to cover up an existing wrought iron column. For less than $100 this DIY friendly project makes a major boost to the home's curb appeal. This is purely decorative column, not made to hold any structual weight. This is to give you an idea of the process to make a big improvement to your home.

Supplies used were 1/2" plywood with a smooth side (for painting or staining). I used 1 and 1/4 sheets of plywood. Depending on your column size and width will dictate the amount of plywood you need for your project.
