An outdoor garden bench adds beauty to our backyard or lawn. It is also a great way to spend a relaxing evening.final

P had this long urge to build furniture and bought the necessary materials from Lowe’s and built an amazing ‘garden bench’ in just 4 hours!! Man, I am impressed! 🙂 Bench weighs 200 pounds.

Materials Needed:

2×4 – 8 qty

2×6 – 1 qty

Drill

Outdoor decking screws.

Procedure:

1) Draw a sketch of the bench with the measurements, that you plan to build. Google images come a long way!

2) Buy the necessary materials from Lowe’s or Home Depot. They even cut the wood to the dimensions that you need. You can even buy a saw to cut it on your own.

3) Build your desire bench!

After it was built, I tried my hand at sawing, painting and staining it!! 😉
