Happy Sunday friends! I’m so excited about this project. I’ve pinned so many furniture building projects that I’ve wanted to try our hand out on and we finally got to one of them! Along with the kitchen makeover, I’ve been working on our master bathroom… so we decided to make building project numero uno a cute DIY Bathroom Storage Bench!
To help build this bench I received a Kreg Jig from Rockler… love those folks!
I can’t tell you how easy and quick this tool makes building. We used a bench plan from Ana White and had all our pieces cut at our hardware store. My husband stained the boards first. Letting them dry was the most time consuming part of this project.
The Kreg Jig made the bench assembly so quick and easy!
I’ve purchased items throughout the years from Rockler and I’ve worked with them on previous projects too and they’ve always been great to work with.
Now that we’ve built our first piece we’re itching to get to our list. I think next up will be some banquette seating for our kitchen nook.
Thanks for stopping by friends!
The wonderful folks at Rocker supplied me with the Kreg Jig but all opinions and comments are 100% mine.

May 19, 2014 at 1:33 pmYou make it look so easy! This is a very handsome bench. I can’t believe this was the first building project you tried. My DH and I have been trying to get up the ‘gumption’ to tackle a little building project. Thanks for the inspiration. Just curious; since it was for the bathroom, did you seal it with something special because of the extra moisture in the bathroom?
