Finding a piece of furniture that is as fashionable as it is functional is a major win, and that's why we are big fans of storage benches. A staple in entryways and mud rooms, a stylish storage bench can be the perfect accent piece to a space – and we have found a fantastic one that just so happens to be on sale.
Martha Stewart's collection features a farmhouse-inspired storage bench (now sold out on Wayfair) that we have had our eyes on, and it meets the mark as both stylish as functional. With a striped seat and wood legs, the bench itself functions as a beautiful piece of furniture.
However, it is the storage element that takes it to the next level, helping to clear clutter from hallways or even bedrooms. It's a timeless small room decor trend that deserves a place in every entryway, no matter how compact.
This farmhouse-style frame is complement by a striped, upholstered seat, in a look that is as stylish as it is functional.
According to experts, storage benches are especially great furniture picks for small rooms, where clutter build-up is more likely.
'For smaller space-saving solutions, consider trunks, boxes, and baskets as these are a fantastic option to give you that extra storage you require without taking over a space,' says Lena Gierasinska, head of product and displays at Barker and Stonehouse. 'These are great because they are easy to move around and have a variety of uses.'
The Martha bench is perfect for storing blankets, books, or even shoes. We love the concealed, tidy look of the bench, but open storage benches are also fantastic for those who want to display some of their accessories more obviously.
The Martha Stewart Harstrom Flip Top Storage Bench is available for $269.99 now, and we have rounded up some other (discounted) bench options below, including both open and closed storage variations.
