Potting Bench

Build a beautiful and functional farmhouse-style potting bench in this hands-on workshop. This design features a slatted bottom shelf for storage, an upper shelf with a built-in hook bar for tools, and classic X detailing on the ends for added charm.

Designed with simplicity in mind, this project uses basic tools and off-the-shelf materials, making it approachable for confident beginners and satisfying for more experienced builders. The finished bench is perfect for potting plants, organizing garden supplies, or adding rustic character to a porch, greenhouse, or garage. You’ll leave with a sturdy, practical piece that looks great and works hard.
