Craigslist: IKEA Storage Bench

Have I mentioned how much I love Craigslist! For a couple of weeks now I've been searching high and low for a cute storage bench to place under a window between our dining room and the door that leads out to our back patio (a place to store shoes and JD's random living room toys). Yesterday I finally decided I was just going to build one, but made one last attempt to find a reasonably priced one on Craigslist. I came across a listing for an IKEA storage bench for $25 and although for that price I didn’t think it would be what I was looking for I clicked on the link anyways. I was pleasantly surprised. Needless to say I wound up getting it and I wanted to thank my wonderful daddy for picking it up for me. Now I just need to find some pretty fabric to cover the cushion seat. Isn’t it so cute!
