This is a very comfortable bench that is 32 inches long and 27 inches tall. A slanted back makes it very comfortable to sit on and it is also a nice length to lay on. The inverted bottom is nice for storing things like toys, books, slippers, pillows, and more! Wood glue and screws make it very sturdy so you do not need to worry about it collapsing.

First, you'll want to get wood glue. Take your four boars that are 32 inches long. Glue them the long way so they are 32 inches long and 14 inches wide. Make two sets of these. Next, take the boards that are 25 inches long. Glue them together. Take the boards that are 13 and 1/2 inches long. Glue two sets of two.

Using four screws per side, screw the 13 and 1/2 inch long boards to the 25 inch long boards. Next, using four screws, screw on one of the 32-inch long board sets. Next, take the 27-inch long boards and using two screws per board, screw them onto the back.

Next, glue your two triangle pieces onto your 27 inch boards, making sure they touch the bottom of the 32 inch boards. Glue the bottom of the second 32 inch board to the first 32 inch board. Using 3 screws per side, screw the second 32 inch board to the triangle pieces. Round the top edges of the 32 inch boards. And Done!
