Annoyed
Why would one of my friends tell me she 'thinks' another girl kissed my other friends bf?
I said not my business Mad
He's true blue and I think it's idle gossip and I'm not getting caught up in their drama
I can't even keep track of who I'm kissing

Do you have plans for that, or are you just trying to do what was in that picture you posted?
There were no measured plans with it. I started with 2x4 lumber for the side frames. The rear legs/uprights were 72" (6 feet) long. The front legs were 37" (3 feet, 1 inch) long. Front-to-back is 24" (2 feet). I made it 48" (4 feet) wide, so I could get two cross pieces out of each 8 foot piece of 1x4 and 1x2. I used the table saw to notch out the ends of the 2x4 pieces and make lap joints for the side frames. These were glued and clamped, then screwed as well, using 1 5/8" deck screws. That took about 2.5 hours on Monday night after work.

Tuesday night I tied the two frame sections together, with 1x4 crossmembers and began the majority of assembly. That took another 2.5 hours. Wednesday night I finished adding the bottom shelf, two top shelves and the back slats.

I customized my version of the bench by adding 2x4 supports for two shelves on top. The top shelf is 20" deep, and the little shelf 12 inches below it is 12" deep. If I had thought more about it, I'd have done lap joints for these, but I simply screwed the support 2x4s to the inside of the rear legs/uprights. This meant the slats were 45" long for these two shelves.

Let me go take a few pictures, and I'll be back to post them in a few minutes.

It was a relatively easy project, because it's all straight 90-degree cuts. No bevels, no angles, nothing fancy. Lap-joining the 2x4 frame pieces was the most difficult part, but it makes for a very strong and sleek frame. I also had to drill holes in each piece before using the deck screws. If I hadn't, they would have split the wood too badly.
