Ok…SPOILER ALERT…
so, this bench isn’t 100% done. But, the initial assembly is around 44 seconds with the cups on the floor. I realized belatedly that I shouldn’t have started with the cups already spaced out so let’s call it a minute instead. All the pieces that I am using, come, as is, and ready to go in Lowes/Home Depot, Target and the craft stores. There is absolutely no cutting involved in building this bench. I used 2 stair treads, 2 crates and 6 heavy duty plastic storage cups. Could it be any more simple than that? As soon as I paint and stain it and decide what must be permanently attached, I will update this tutorial. For now this is just an idea that was too good to wait to share with all of you!
