DIY garden bench with steel base and multiplex top

Do you dream of enriching your garden or patio with a personalised piece of furniture? With this inspiring DIY project, Elisa shows you how you can design your own waterproof garden bench with a little creativity and craftsmanship. Experience the freedom of material selection and the many design options and create a unique, customised piece.

Project details and realisation

Elisa's project proves that a garden bench can not only be practical, but also stylish. She has used a waterproof multiplex board B/BB with a thickness of 40 mm, which was specially cut to size by TOSIZE.fr. The board has been carefully varnished, which not only refines the appearance but also reinforces the weather-resistant character of the bench.

Customised steel feet, which Elisa purchased from retailers or directly from a steel company, ensure stability. These were attached to the multiplex board - the result is a robust construction with a clear, modern design, ideal for a relaxing break in your own outdoor area.

Stylish accents: The finishing touches

Elisa has completed her project by adding decorative cushions and a cosy blanket to give the bench a personal touch. The minimalist style of the garden bench, complemented by these accessories, invites you to linger and enjoy. The carefully selected colours also set stylish accents; the white of the lacquered top harmonises perfectly with the simple steel legs and the colour-coordinated cushions.

The advantages of DIY

The main advantages of realising your DIY project are the flexibility of customisation and the free choice of materials. Elisa not only benefited from the budget aspect, but also from being able to customise the size of the bench to suit her outdoor area. Customisation is an aspect that is particularly important when designing outdoor furniture, as the available space can be optimally used.

The types of wood used

Multiplex Waterproof B/BB is an excellent choice for garden furniture due to its durability and appearance. It is a durable type of wood that is ideal for outdoor use. The material shows its strengths particularly in changing weather conditions and remains permanently beautiful. Elisa has therefore opted for a garden bench that is not only functional, but also weather-resistant and aesthetically pleasing.
