I live ~2 miles from a cider mill - but I'm kind of embarrassed to go in there asking to buy bushel baskets. Is there any place I can order from on-line? Hopefully the crew will be here tomorrow, that's the plan, but of course it's possible there will be another delay due to other job they're finishing up. It would be great if they would get started tomorrow, finally ---> tons (as in ~20 tons) of stone on my driveway, huge dumpster, what an eyesore - but worth putting up with for the short term, it will look great when it's done!

Its likely the reason you can't find an extension because its something like a Wagner. I have a Graco & finding an extension is no problem. I don't know the brand of stain that you are using or what kind it is.....solid, semi-transparent or transparent. Maybe a different brand might last longer. On exteriors I use either Cabot or Sikkens.

Found it on Pinterest which led to the following link: https://www.brosa.com.au/search?view=spring&q=watkins+console&utm_source=pinterest&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=campaign2.0_10.05.17_pinterest_watkins_console&utm_content=watkins_console&pp=1

A shoe cabinet something like this can serve as a console and also hold the shoes out of sight. I reallly like the chairs on each side as opposed to the little stools, much more fitting to the size and elegance of your entry.
