We’ve decided to turn our kitchen dining room area into a more cozy and casual breakfast nook. I’ve always wanted to try my hand at DIYing a custom (semi) built in dining bench, so I used some inexpensive IKEA refrigerator cabinets to make one for our new breakfast nook. I love how it turned out & I’m sharing the how to here!

I have seen this on Pinterest as well it's good to see it in video form. A helpful hint for anyone who would like to do this project, I see cabinets like this at the Habitat for Humanity ReStore all the time for 10 to $15!!!
Quite worried about the weight it can take
5:06 did she just said “day core”instead of decor? 😂
how did u made the door?
Did you end up using the rails to secure it to the wall? Or is it free-standing (or sitting)
This really helped me with my upcoming project
love this, looks great
The person who sits in the back of the banquette needs to get up, EVERYONE HAS TO GET UP!!!
Four kids, doesn’t work for us.
This is awesome. Thanks for sharing!! Where’d you get that gorgeous jute rug?
Te quedó impresionante👍👍💖💖
Great idea it is actually very easy once I saw you put it together
I’m going to try this in my caravan.
#momgoals!
Bravo il est très beau
Such a great idea! I can’t wait to try this. Did you make the pillow on the right? It looks like crochet or macrame or woven. I can’t tell which. Love it!

This is a awesome idea if you already have the stuff. However kitchen cabinets are not cheap and about time you buy the two kitchen cabinets you are already at 150 bucks. It's still a cool diy, just a pricey one.
I love it and thank you for sharing
I love this diy just what I needed for my space. Can’t wait to do this
♥️♥️♥️
Am I watching you work outside in a singlet ? Is thst snow I see in the foreground? What ever it is it looks pretty.
I love the finished bench. It's really handy to have the storage open at the front and not have to lift the seat up anytime you want to get to anything inside. I'd really like to know the overall cost of the DIY against buying a purpose build bench of the same size. I'd like something similar for my hallway so shoes can be stored underneath. Thanks for sharing and showing how easy it can be. 🙂
I like this, it looks great! One question though – how do you open the doors? There are no hooks.
Hi. Which kitchen cabinet from ikea did you use? Link not working
Next can you make coffee table
does the cushion slide? I use velcro alot. LOL
Great video. You make it look so easy!
