How about installing furniture legs on it. There are so many options. Try googling, "furniture legs for sofa." Check your local hardware store too.
Could you make a base out of pallets, adding stained or painted boards across the front and sides of the pallets to create a solid appearance? I haven't worked with pallets, but from the pictures I've seen, it looks like this idea would work.
If you have cusions instead of a solid "seat", put foam under them to raise them. I found a 4' piece of foam at Walmart to put under the cushions on my rattan furniture to cover the wooden "spacers" under the cushions, which I invariably sat on when I sat down. Ouch!
