Hi friends, I’m back to share the plans for the benches we built at The Home Depot Foundation’s Celebration of Service Kickoff Event. That’s a mouthful, right? If you don’t know what I’m talking about, I go into great detail about my involvement with The Home Depot Foundation here.
It was such a fun day of building things and these benches are SUPER EASY to build. You only need a drill and saw – no fancy tools required! These DIY benches were for outdoor use so we used pressure-treated lumber and Trex (manufactured deck material).

Love this project? PIN IT so you don’t forget it!
Thanks, Jen. I can learn from you how to build a bench by myself, now I have no woodworking skills but I think I can do it in some days. Your DIY inspired me a lot when I have a strong passion for home decorating.
This concept inspired me a lot. I’m an interior architecturer and looking for some classical design ideas. If you have more, please share with me.
a very suitable interior style in public places, the seats are beautiful
This a great design and I was excited to make something called “the easiest “. However, the lack of detailed instructions makes it way more complicated for a novice. Including specifics on what pieces to cut from each board as well as how to actually screw it together would have made the project easier.
