While working on my recent Farmhouse Bed Project, I realized that I really needed a solid workbench. I’ve been using an old door on a couple of saw horses, and that’s ok, but what would really be great is a large workbench that I could actually move around my “shop” as I’m building. So at the risk of all the problems that arise when I’m trying to multi-task, I took on the project of building a workbench in the middle of my bed project.

I built this bench to go with our Rustic Farmhouse Table. Since building it, it’s been a great addition to the table. In addition to the “look” we were going for, it’s really useful when we have a houseful of children and need to cram a bunch of them around the table.
Inspired by the DIY farmhouse table design by Ana White, I decided to try this project out. It’s a great project for an ambitious beginner and because it’s a “rustic” design, it’s a pretty forgiving project.
