DIY Wishing Well: Free woodworking plans!

My daughter’s school hosts an annual auction to raise money to pay for school improvements and to provide PE and art classes, and pretty much any type of class outside the educational basics.  Each class is asked to create a project to contribute for the auction (which means a parent volunteers to make something! 😉  ) So this year, I volunteered to make the project for my daughter’s class.  It took me a while to think of a project that would be an item that most anyone might want to bid on, but I finally decided on a DIY wishing well!  I mean, who doesn’t love the magic of a wishing well in their front or back yard?! (And of course,  I had to test build one for myself first because I too want a wishing well in my yard!)

5.  Attach the three remaining panels to the 22″ 2×4 boards using wood glue and 2 1/2″ exterior wood screws (predrill first) attached at an angle through the front of the 18″ panels into the 2×4 boards.  The boards should now form a hexagon shape.

16.  Attach one of the 19 3/4″ 1×4 boards to each end of each of the two the 17 3/4″ 1×4 boards that are attached to the 66″ boards using wood glue and 1 1/2″ exterior wood screws (Attach through the side of the 19 3/4″ board into the 17 3/4″ boards.  The ends of the 19 3/4″ boards should sit flush with the ends of the 17 3/4″ boards, and the 19 3/4″ boards should slant upward at a 25° angle.

17.  Use wood glue and 2 1/2″ exterior pocket hole screws to attach the 3 3/4″ 2×4 hexagon-shaped board to the four 19 3/4″ boards that are currently attached to the roof frame (each board will attach to one of the sides of the hexagon).

DIY Wishing Well

18.  Attach the 17 3/4″ horizontal boards to the open side of each of the 19 3/4″ vertical boards using wood glue and 1 1/2″ exterior wood screws.

19.  Attach the last two vertical 19 3/4″ boards in between the two horizontal boards that are not attached on each side, using wood glue and 1 1/2″ exterior wood screws.

20.  Attach the last two horizontal boards to the hexagon-shaped board at the top center using wood glue and 2 1/2 exterior pocket hole screws.

21.  Predrill a hole in the top center of the hexagon board at the top, and then attach the round post cap using the attached screw.

DIY Wishing Well

22.  Cut and attach the roof panels.  Cut each board and attach one at a time to ensure proper fit (in case the roof angles aren’t exactly 30°, you may need to slightly adjust the length of the board or the miter angle).  The roof boards should be attached using the Brad nailer and 1 1/2″ galvanized brad nails (nail through the top of each roof board into the framing below).  The cuts are as follows:

  • 6 1×6 fence boards at 24″ long-end to long-end with each end beveled at 25° and mitered to 30°.  (Attach each of these first, aligning them so the bottom half of the boards hang over the edge of the roof frame)
  • 6 1×6 fence boards at 20 1/2″ long-end to long-end with each end beveled at 25° and mitered to 30° (attach these after the longer boards above have all been attached, align them so they cover the top 1/3 of the longer boards)
  • 6 1×6 fence boards at 16 1/4″ long-end to long-end with each end beveled at 25° and mitered to 30°. (attach after all the 20 1/2″ boards are attached, aligning them so the top 1/3 of the 20 1/2″ boards are covered)
  • 6 1×6 fence boards at 12 1/2″ long-end to long-end with each end beveled at 25° and mitered to 30°. (attach after all the 16 1/4″ boards are attached, aligning them so the top 1/3 of the 16 1/4″ boards are covered)
  • 6 1×6 fence boards at 8″ long-end to long-end with each end beveled at 25° and mitered to 30°. (attach after all the 12 1/2″ boards are attached, aligning them so the top 1/3 of the 12 1/2″ boards are covered and so the tops of the 8″ boards but up against the round post cap at the top)

DIY Wishing Well

23.  Cut a length of the closet rod to 28″ in length.

24.  Attach the rod around 6″ below the bottom of the roof frame,  in between the two 66″ boards (use a level to ensure it is straight).  Attach using wood glue and 2 1/2″ exterior wood screws (predrill holes first) through the outside edge of the 2×4 boards.

DIY Wishing Well

25.  Cut a 1×4 board to 7″ in length, with each corner mitered at 45°.  Predrill a small hole in the center of the board approximately 2″ from one end.

26.  Cut a closet rod to 4″ in length and drill a small hole into the center.

DIY Wishing Well

27.  Attach the 4″ closet rod to the 7″ 1×4 using wood glue and a 1 1/2″ exterior wood screw (drill through the 7″ board into the 4″ board.

DIY Wishing Well

28.  Attach the 7″ board with the 4″ handle to one of the 66″ 2×4 boards, so a portion of the 7″ board covers the screw that attaches the closest rod using wood glue and 1 1/2″ exterior wood screws.

29.  Sand and stain the wishing well (Since I planed my boards prior to attaching them, not much sanding is needed).  I used Thompson’s Water Seal in Semi-Transparent Walnut.

30.  Add an outdoor rope and bucket (and add some plants to the bucket if you won’t mind, and hang them from the well which is now in front of  the whole class.

DIY Wishing Well

This project is a bit more difficult than some of my previous projects (mostly because of the roof),  I would classify as an Intermediate project.  I did use Construction-grade Redwood which is about half the price of the prettier lumber, but once I ran it through my planer it looked like the more expensive redwood.  If you have built a wishing well I’d love to hear about it in the comments below!

    What was the dimensions of the inside of the well once it was finished? Thinking of building something similar just curious what the size is once this project was completed per your angles and measurements, thanks! Looks great by the way!

      Thanks Bryan! Sorry for the late response, I missed the notification about this comment when it came through! The inner diameter of the well base is approximately 30″ across from inner edge to opposite inner edge. Hope that helps! I’d love to see a pic if you do end up building one.

    Wonderful blog. When I was young, we had a well that was useful in our gardening. Now, it became broken and need to restore. Gladly I landed on your blog. It helps me fix our well for my kids.

    We are finishing this right now for our virtual auction project. We are getting ready to attach the rope and bucket. Did you glue the rope or staple it or anything or just wrap and tie it off?

      Hi Sarah, I tied a knot in the rope around the the pole after the very first loop around the pole, then I held onto the knot to be able to continue wrapping the rope around the pole until it became pretty firmly wrapped. Once I had the amount of rope I wanted around the pole, I attached the bucket to the remaining end which then held the rope in place. But you could use staples to help adhere the rope to the pole, wouldn’t hurt anything. Hope that helps!

New At Home DIY Challenge project completed!  This month was a DIY home improvement and I chose to add DIY board and batten to my entryway and hallway walls.  Love how it turned out! #diyhomedecor #diyhomeprojects #diyhomeimprovement #boardandbatten #athomediychallenges #woodworking
