SUPER Easy DIY X Upholstered Bench

I've wanted a bench for the end of our bed for what seems like forever. But they were always too short, too wide, ugly pattern etc.
If you're new to the blog, let me start by telling you that I'm a bit of a minimalist. Which is good, because we live in the smallest farmhouse ever, see here.
I really wanted to do a DIY post for y'all because this is so easy guys, plus, it cost us under 45.00 to make! I was eyeing up a bench on wayfair that I kept putting in my cart & then taking out. It was too small for our bed anyways and too wide.
Then the Rogue Engineer posted their amazing tutorial on this bench & I knew we had to make it! We modified ours quite a bit by making it much longer & using 2x2 white pine instead. Below I'll be attaching where we found our foam, batting, fabric & nail heads. I really wish we had of taken step-by-step photos for y'all, but we had to work on this at night as we were building for customers all day, so lighting really sucked!
