Kids Outdoor Acrylic Painting Easel. The kids outdoor acrylic painting easel is a very quick build.
The frame is made from three 8′ 2×4’s and the supplies shelves are made from a 8′ 1×6. Other than that all you need is 3/4″ quarter round trim to hold in the 36″ x 30″ sheet of acrylic. Making the Kids Acrylic Painting Easel Base From the 2×4’s, cut 2 frame legs to 54″ long, 2 frame rails to 36″ long, and 2 feet to 24″ long. From the 1×6 cut 2 supply shelves 36″ long. Drill pocket holes on the ends of the frame rails and on one end of the frame legs. Attach the frame rails to the frame legs with 2″ pocket hole screws to leave a 30″ x 36″ opening.
To soften the feet, cut 45 degree bevels on the ends of them at the miter saw. Attach the frame legs to the feet with 2″ pocket hole screws. To square the frame, add two 8″ braces with 45 degree cuts on each end. Tales of a Monkey, a Bit, and a Bean: The Coolest Cardboard House EVER!

As I also mentioned, we had piles of cardboard lying around, having been saved from our IKEA entertainment center.
