Hey friends, I'm back with another simple, but fun furniture building project! I needed one last thing to finish off my bathroom remodel and this storage bench with drawer checked all the boxes--at least for now haha.
This is a fun project that would be great for storage in an entryway for shoes, hats, and gloves, or at the end of a bed for blankets. You could even use it for toys in a kids room, or for some extra storage in a craft or bathroom as well.
