DIY Outdoor Sectional Made With Recycled Material
The Outdoor sectional was built using recycled treated wood that consist of 2X6, 2X4 and 1X4. The wood came from an old deck that was removed and the wood was still in good condition. I mostly used the wood I had on hand and making adjustment to the sectional plan so i didn’t have to buy any extra wood. You can built this sectional using store bought wood if you choose.
The long part of the sectional measure 94 inches X 25inches and the shorter part of it measures 74 inches X 25 inches

I love this idea and it probably will hold up longer than store bought.
