Simple DIY Farmhouse Bench Tutorial With Storage

Simple DIY Farmhouse Bench Tutorial With Storage

How to Make a Farmhouse Outdoor Bench

This bench gives me all the heart eyes! It’s huge, sturdy, and I love the farmhouse style and the extra storage it provides. Plus (most importantly) the bench looks amazing on my front porch. This bench was super easy & inexpensive to make. It only takes a few 2x4s, a box a wood screws, and a couple of hours on a Saturday afternoon to put together. And did you notice that not one screw is visible? I love that part of the design! Wood screws aren’t pretty. This bench is definitely a beginner’s project that anyone can tackle. If I can make this bench, you can, too. Let’s get started!

Step 1: Cut your brace pieces.

Before you begin, pick out the 4 best boards. These will be the seat of your bench. Choose the straightest, smoothest and prettiest boards to set aside.


Next, you will cut one of the remaining 2x4s in half with the table saw. Then cut those into 14 inch pieces. You will need 10 of these for brace pieces. You’ll have a

little extra wood left over that you won’t be using. Save that for another project.
