I love your video doing it on the floor proving that while still budgeting for work bench I can still work and do projects and accumulate money for my work bench
Stefani, your work is beautiful! I’d love to see more videos where you spend a little more time showing different angles of the finished piece. Love your videos!
I have watched you do all these great projects in your garage on your hands and knees. Take some time and build yourself a workbench girl. You will save time and your knees will appreciate it.
Wow I'm so happy I found you. I watch so many DIY youtubers and while their stuff is great its never perfect because a lot of people rush through things. I'm a perfectionist so I always notice the tiniest things. I can see you're a perfectionist too from your work which makes your channel very enjoyable to watch 😊.
Tip: try to maximize your textiles when upholstering. Cut only what you need by placing the object to be covered as close to the edge as possible. That way you can use leftovers for another project.
Sweet. But I think I would put 1 or two frame supporting pieces in the middle to avoid any sagging in the ply top. Also 2 pieces would gives a little support for your frame to stay square.
It all started with the closet DIY video, Looking forward to tooling up and using your videos as a guide! Thank you for well executed DIY tutorials, very detailed, and clear instructions! :)
I was given a handy tip when I made my first bench that I hope will help you too. Use high density 3" foam for longer life and comfort and use an electric knife to cut the foam. I got my electric knife at Good Will for $1 and only use it for foam and crafts. Hope that makes future projects easier. I love your projects and all your BOSS girl power! Nice job!
Christine Brennan I’ll have to look up “high density foam” to see what it is, but how does it differ from what Stefani used here? Is high density foam what memory foam pillows and mattress pads are made of?
High density foam has a longer life and can take more wear and weight than just craft/sewing foam. It is not memory foam. It is much more dense and firm than standard foam and is used in furniture and vehicles. Any upholstery store can get it for you. I used to get it from Hancock Fabrics.
Love it. I appreciate you providing a list of tools for this project. I plan on having my Home Depot guys cut the wood for me. Thank you for sharing. Stay safe.
Great job. I think I would have used heavier wood along the length, or a second piece behind the first just to make it sturdier. You could get some cracking where the screws enter the wood if somebody heavy sits on it. But it looks great!!.
Thank you Stefani, this a great project, you are so talented and things look simple. I will make one for my house, im actually looking for a piece of furniture exactly like this. Blessings
Great job! I’m actually building a shoe rack cushioned ottoman for my master closet. Is there anything you can recommend besides the spray glue, to make the foam stick to the wood?
Very nice video, im enjoying your channel and handywork. You should really get a workbench or at least knee guards. Cant be working off the floor for too long
AT 0:59 WHAT DO THE DIMENSIONS MUMBERSEAN LIKE WHAT IS THE LENGTH? so 3/4" : 11/2" @ 42" AND 1/2" X 2' X 4' @ 48" X 16".... CAN YOU TELL ME WHICH IS THE LENGTH / HEIGHT/ WIDTH FOR EACH OF THOSE NUMBERS? IS THE BENCH FRAME THE EXACT SAME SIZE A THE BENCG SEAT? OR I THE BENCH SEAT SLIGHTLY SMALLER? SORRY FOR CAPS, KEYBOARD NOT WORKING X
Nice to see how you protector your livingroom flying carpet when spraying. My wife would totally kick me out if I would pull that off, and vise versa. Hope your hubby isn't watching
Why do men feel the need to offer unsolicited advice? Stefani did a great job without yall's opinions on what she should have done instead. Go do it yourself, guys.
"so many"? 3 out of 86 is not so bad .Anyway, to compensate for the "creepy men" i will now post a non sexist comment: What an ugly, unattractive woman! eeew! 🙄😄
