Deciding to build a window bench adds cozy seating and storage.
Measure your window nook and cut plywood for the base and lid. Assemble a box frame, securing with screws, and add dividers for strength. Sand and paint or stain, then attach the lid with hinges. Cushion with foam and fabric for comfort.
This weekend project costs $100-$200. The result is a charming bench that maximizes space, perfect for reading or storage. With basic tools, you’ll create a functional, inviting feature for any room. You could try your hands on this during any weekend of your choice, and you could also either decide to do it alone or include your friends, either ways it could be a fun way to spend your weekend.
