Hi All,
This is a bit out of left field, but I am making from scratch a bench to go at the foot of my bed to put my shoes on in the morning, as my bed is a bit too tall (no short ass jokes please, I'm 6'2).
The plan is for a traditional bench seat in wood painted black, which will have a foam padding to sit on glued to the bench. I want to upholster the foam in a suit material and at this stage I'm leaning towards a mid to dark grey herringbone fabric.
Considering all I will be doing is sitting on it, I'm not looking for Loro Piana or Zegna etc, just something fairly cheap I can get online reasonably easily. Any help is appreciated.
