Shoe-bench-deck-seat

I was looking for an Asian-style shoe-bench to put on the deck between the master bedroom and the little bathroom, but everything new I saw was too expensive, to flimsy, and just not right. Then I found this coffee table in the thrift store... made in Indonesia, sturdy enough to sit on. And the bench pads were half-price at World Market this weekend.

So now there is no excuse for wearing shoes indoors.
