We have a kind of large entryway in our new house that I needed something big enough to fill the space but also look like it fits. So I build 8x2x1.5 (ft) bench. I used an old 4x8 for the legs, a couple pallets for the top, bought some 2x4 for the frame and some 1x6 for trim. Then stained it Jacobean (A combo of both my boys' names)
