I recently found a cinder block bench tutorial by The DIY Cottage on YouTube, and I knew I had to make it. I love everything about this cinder block bench with pineapple accents. It is easy to assemble, it is so cheap, and it looks so summery. This lovely outdoor bench requires no hammer, no nails, no sanding, and really no carpentry skills at all. All you have to do is buy some cinder blocks, a long piece of wood, and put the whole thing together by using a very simple stacking method. The painting and pineapple detail os optional, but it gives the otherwise austere cinder blocks a farmhouse look. Within one hour you will have a gorgeous bench that looks absolutely amazing. The only pre-planning you need to think about is deciding where you want to place your bench. When you find that nice shady spot where the bench is going to serve your needs best, just build it right there. You can move the bench, but that will involve taking it apart, but that really isn’t the end of the world, it is just better if you measure and really think about where this bench should go to avoid having to move it. Just find a space that’s level and make this dream come true.

- 10 cinder blocks
