I used 4/4 stock, so the lower level is an inch and the upper levels are 2 inches.

Haven’t figured that out yet...think about that every time I get a chance to work on it. ?
Edit: Been thinking about ideas, and I’m going to try liming wax. Worst case I can just brush over it with some chalk paint if it turns out horrible.

Thank you gents.
Jason, I originally wanted something that I could put on my fireplace, but this one ended up being a little too big and busy. Not sure what I’ll do with it at this point...prob call it great practice and hand it off to a family member.

Looks beautiful! You could make this into a shelf - use this as the apron along the front... Either attach it to a board, or leave if open.
