What can I use for an outdoor bench?
You can use a variety of things as an outdoor bench. As an alternative to actual benches, consider a pair of garden stools placed side by side. Or, try upcycling items like crates, wood boxes or large planters, all of which are suitable pieces of seating for gardens and other exterior spaces. On 1stDibs, shop an assortment of outdoor furniture.
