Coat Rack Benches
Coats are very seasonal, aren’t they?
It is not all year round one gets to wear a jacket or a coat, as these garments are meant to give us a feeling of warmth and coziness, which makes coats and jackets inherently unnecessary during the hot summer months – unless you live in Alaska or Greenland. For those who live in places otherwise stated, coats are kept hidden in a dark closet somewhere either under the stairwell, behind boxes in the bedroom closet, or even inside a dust covered creaky trunk in the attic.
When we see leaves falling and hear Christmas bells ringing, it only means we should ready our trusty pea coats, fur coats, sweaters, gloves, mitten, and hats for the upcoming cold weeks. Coat racks would miraculously come back to life after months of serving the household as a mere entryway ornament.
But when the season ends, what would happen to your coat rack?
You’d have to store EVERYTHING away again into your dark and creepy closet until that time of the year that you need one again. Sick and tired of the same old routine? Having a coat rack bench would be the essential addition to your home.
A coat rack bench would easily be a more practical and convenient choice especially for homes who have a rather spacious entryway. This piece of furniture combines the sturdy standing coat rack, orderly coat rack shelf, and handy storage trunk, all in one fantastic piece of functional yet stylish piece of entryway furniture.
As stated earlier, coats are very seasonal, and it is not everyday you get to wear one. Coats have to be tucked in crammed closets during those months you don’t need one, but when the time comes, you’d feel like Indian Jones searching for the lost covenant finding your favorite pea coat. Searching for coats you and your family have not used for almost a year could be quite a challenging task.
Having a coat rack bench eliminates the need to enter your bat cave of Halloween costumes, Christmas decorations, swimwear, and scary blinking dolls just to find the other pair of your mitten. Coat rack benches feature a storage trunk where you can simply tuck in coats and other garments whenever not in use. So whenever you forget how the year passes by, or an unprecedented heavy rain struck the town, you know where to find the right garment for the right occasion.
Plus, a coat rack with storage bench also doubles as a bench where you can easily slip into or off your snow shoes. Everyone knows how hard it is to remove those tall ice boots, especially those ones with so many laces. Trying to untie them standing or crouching will be painstakingly difficult, awkwardly unbalancing, and painful for your back. At least a handy storage bench lets you sit down and take a nice warm breather before you decide to remove your boots.
Coat rack benches will simply make your life easier and start the holidays with an ice-melting smile.
An entryway bench coat rack will look best as a classical piece of furniture. Classical pieces naturally emanate a warm atmosphere, because of the intricate wood carvings, styles, and wood finish.
When it comes to classical coat rack benches, nothing could possibly be more classical and rustic than the Powell French Country Hall Tree Storage Bench. This graceful wooden coat rack with storage bench provides a welcoming seat, rack, and shelf for anyone who comes home from punishing rain or icy winds. Lined beadboard pattern accentuate the back panels and bench for a nostalgic look. Furthermore, mirrored panels accentuate the top panel giving a somewhat ‘window’ effect. Antique bronze hooks will hold all your heavy coats, scarves, and hats while a large storage chest hides away all unused garments intact and in style. The coat rack and bench is available in a warm French Maple finish accented with Dark Pewter finish.
A much simpler yet just as beautiful option is the Coat Rack with Storage Bench by Home Styles. This practical entryway bench coat rack features a wood-grill detailing and beveled edge crown that provide a rather unique, rustic, warm, and spacious feel to any foyer. Four brass hooks not only provide aesthetics but also holds thick coats firmly. A coat rack bench is not complete without a bench, of course. This piece features an inset bench complimented with beadboard panels that provide a nice visual character. The solid hardwood construction with a cottage oak finish provides a warm ambiance perfect for the cold season.
