We determine the materials for the garden bench
One of the attributes of the atmosphere of the yard is the bench. You can make it from a variety of materials: wood, iron, stone, brick.
Some craftsmen make their benches made of glass bottles, which are used instead of bricks. The result is an original thing.
Materials for the legs
The legs for the bench can be laid out of the stone by laying the seat from the boards on top, you can simply fabricate the log and lay it on impromptu legs from the same logs, you can make a regular bench made of wood, decorating it with all the colors of the rainbow or simply covering it with varnish. There are many options, we will consider the most familiar option for us – a wooden bench.
Decide on the place
First, decide where you will put a bench and plan to move it. The tree of the tree, in general, does not matter, you just need to carefully process the bench in the finished form.
Decide on the form and design
Decide on the shape and design of the bench, its length, the presence of the back, width and height. You can make several different benches in the same style, or limit yourself to completely identical benches. It is necessary to make a drawing and decide on the height of the seat, the width of the seat, the width and angle of the back of the back.
How to make a garden bench yourself
Generally accepted standards for benches:
• seat at an altitude of about 40 cm;
• seat about 50 cm wide;
• Back about 40 cm high.
Do not forget to thoroughly treat the surfaces with varnish or paint, so that the bench serves you for a long time. To do this, you can use a primer, paint coatings.
It is recommended to apply the first layer of the primer, let dry, polish, varnish, again polish and cover the last layer of varnish. Paints exist different – those that emphasize the structure of the tree and those that completely paint over it. The choice is yours.
Creating a bench with your own hands, you get an exclusive, exquisite creation created by the best designer – you. Only in this way can you fully satisfy your needs. Dream, create, dare and be happy!
