10. Bench with Planters

A bench with built-in planters adds greenery and charm to your patio.

Start by designing a bench with planter boxes on either side. Decide the size based on the plants you want to grow.

Materials include wooden boards, screws, a drill, plastic liners for the planters, and finishing products.

Build two planter boxes and connect them with a seating plank in the middle. Make sure the structure is stable and level.

Line the planter boxes with plastic to protect the wood from moisture. Fill them with soil and plants of your choice.

Sand and finish the wood to ensure durability.
