STORAGE BIN

Let’s be honest—sometimes things get a little messy. Whether it’s the kids’ toys, seasonal gear, or that random pile of “stuff” that seems to grow overnight, we all need a better way to stay organized.

That’s why we built this wooden storage bin—and trust us, it’s a game-changer.

Not only does it help conquer clutter, but it also looks great in the process. These bins aren’t just practical—they’re designed to function as handsome, stackable furniture pieces that work in any room of the house.

More Than Just a Box

You can build a single bin for quick storage or create a whole stackable system. We made ours for a home entryway to hold shoes and bags, but honestly, these bins would be perfect for:

• Toy storage in a kids’ room or play area

• Craft supplies in a hobby room

• Blankets and pillows in the living room

• Pantry overflow in the kitchen

• Even as a catch-all in the garage

They’re easy to move, easy to style, and flexible enough to evolve with your needs.

A Solid Build for Intermediate Woodworkers

If you’re looking for a fun weekend project that sharpens your skills, this one checks all the boxes:

• Finding and cutting angles that make the bin look polished and well-proportioned

• Joining boards to create wide panels for the bin sides

• Using biscuit joinery for clean, strong connections

• Finishing the piece with stain, paint, or a clear coat to protect the wood and highlight the grain

The angled cuts and biscuit joints make this a rewarding project that builds your precision and confidence with power tools.

We love this project because it’s practical, stylish, and endlessly adaptable. Build one, build three, build ten—you’ll always find a use for them. Whether you’re organizing a disaster zone or just trying to get ahead of the clutter, these wooden storage bins are a great step in the right direction.

And the best part? You’ll end up with a piece that looks like custom furniture, not just another plastic tote.
