About This Project

Wanting nice seating for the patio, I could not afford the sofa I wanted from Restoration Hardware. Since I have more interest and willingness than money, I looked on-line for a DIY design. Fortunately, I found Ana's site and her plan. I lengthened her sofa design to fit the RH cushions and went to work. Thank you Ana for easy to follow plans, especially thanks for the cutting & shopping lists! I had your plan by my side during the entire process. Now, I'm ready to build a footrest bench to place in front of it. (I did order the RH cushions... on sale, but still expensive!) I am 71 years old.... you never have to stop becoming, it is a choice!

From Plan (new): 
Simple White Outdoor Sofa
Estimated Cost: 
$105 plus cushions.
Estimated Time Investment: 
Day Project (6-9 Hours)
Required Skill Level: 
Beginner
Type of Wood: 
pressure treated
Finish Used: 
sanding only, I want a weathered look.

comfortable, inviting., outdoor, outdoor couch, senior builder, sofa, you can do it

I am impulse driven and love a new challenge. I paint & dig water gardens, etc. If I ever get my blog up & going, I'll let you know.
