We have slowly been working on our basement the past few months.  The latest project was this set of orange built-ins.  This is a really big (and awkward space.)  The area on the left is about 9 inches deeper than the other two areas.  Here is the before.

While this side is pretty much done (aside from me finding a third matching basket at HomeGoods) the other side is a bit more laborious.

I want this to be an area where the girls can hang out, read a book, or even serve as another bed for sleepovers (the length is that of a twin bed.)  I was just going to just add a custom cushion and call it a day.. but as I ponder it over in my head, the project seems to grow (story of my life.)

So, we will be creating an upholstered bench. Here are some pictures for inspiration.
