Favorite Things DIY LOVE: Our new bench

I love making things and doing anything crafty! So when I saw this coffee table that no longer had a place to go I didn’t want for it to just sit in the storage unit. We decided to turn it into a bench! HOW NEAT!!! I LOVE the result(especially since it’s purple) and wanted to share with you all!

1. First we had to remove the top and then sand the bottom piece before we painted.

2. Then we painted the bottom piece white

3. We cut out some foam (which you can find at any Walmart) to the size of the top piece of the coffee table

Then using quilt batting we covered both sides of the foam, then placed the coffee table top on top

we then wrapped the fabric we chose over the batting, foam, and top

then we stapled it on the underside

VOILA!
