The Dining Table Bench: Practical and Stylish
Looking for a smart and stylish solution for more seating in your kitchen or living room? Mike has the ideal solution with his custom-made dining bench. This bench combines functionality and style in one beautiful piece that fits perfectly in any modern home.
Construction and Materials
The bench is crafted from MDF Primed and has a sleek white finish. This gives the piece a modern and fresh look that contrasts beautifully with the warm wooden floor. The bench is designed with multiple drawers for extra storage, ideal for tidying kitchen textiles or children's toys.
The Perfect Place
This dining bench looks perfect against the blue wall in the living room. Designed to sit next to the dining table, it creates a cozy and functional dining space. Whether it's a quick lunch or a leisurely dinner with friends, this bench offers the perfect spot to enjoy each other's company.
Unique Features
The addition of drawers makes this project truly special. Not only does the bench offer seating, but it also provides ample storage. The custom-cut pieces from TOSIZE.pl ensured that every piece fits perfectly, giving the final product a professional look.
MDF Primed: The Ideal Choice
Mike chose MDF Primed for its smooth finish and durability. It's also highly paintable, making it easy to create the exact look you envision. Additionally, MDF Primed is an economical material, making it budget-friendly without compromising on quality.
DIY tips

Step by step guide
Preparation
- Paint all the shelves on the exposed side. Also paint the uprights where the front shelf and seat shelf meet/touch so the glue can adhere and not seep into the MDF.
- Sand the rough edges of the MDF, as they'll be too rough if you're using them as a bench. Sand three times and paint three times, until it's completely smooth.
Montage
- Place the center uprights (consider the thickness of your skirting board when ordering) and place the front board against them. Glue, clamp on, and add a reinforcing bracket on the inside for stability. Then place the other front board, again with an upright on the opposite side. Then place two uprights in the middle of those two spots for extra stability.
- Your uprights and front panel are now in place. If you like, you can now install the wall outlet—you still have plenty of freedom. Place everything in place and carefully measure the dimensions of the panels you'll be using. Starting in a corner, measure where the shelf will go and place an upright there. Make sure it's level.
- Apply glue to the uprights and attach the seating planks. Apply sufficient pressure to the planks to ensure the glue adheres properly.
Finish
- Place the drawers in their correct positions. Touch up any spots with sandpaper and paint.
