Any kind of humidity is bad for wood. So I would not leave them out there.

Hi Bernice! I'll add to Debbie's comment that dry air is not good for wood either. I'd bring them in or get them shrink wrapped if you have that available in your area. In the Omaha area it's a dollar a square foot. Not sure if you could buy the heavy duty kind in a larger enough piece and do it yourself with a hair dryer. It would be worth looking into if you don't have room for them inside.

My granddaughter will take them off my hands but not until 20 Dec. I have no storage area in my mhome, except one room, and it is beginning to get crowded in there with yard sale stuff I have gotten and not used. I suppose I can bring them in and add to the stuff for a couple of more weeks. They are really nice, unusual for Habitat of Humanity in our area!

We have a neat table that our friends gave us. I believe it's old and the top of it rotates. It will stay on my back porch til winter is over. JMHO = just my honest opinion
