Everything for the Gardener and their Garden

A bench for your garden

Wednesday, October 13th, 2010

Why not treat yourself to a garden bench from RawGarden?
Every garden needs a bench. A quiet place to sit down and enjoy the garden view, a place to sit with friends, or to enjoy a lone cup of coffee as you gaze out on your flowers and plants.
Where’s the best place for siting your garden bench?
Some people like to sit in the sunshine, so this would make a good place – somewhere that gets a lot of sunshine. Remember to think about when and how you’ll be using the bench. Will you be sitting out in the mornings mostly before work, or in the late afternoons? If the bench isn’t too heavy you can move it about but getting it in the right place means you’ll just be able to go and sit down and relax.
If you like to sit out in the afternoon or evening sun then place it where it’ll get the sun for longest. You might take a couple of days to find the perfect spot, as ideally you don’t want to get a breeze rushing past, so adjust the bench until the final position is perfect!
Some people like to have a bench outside their front door to sit and enjoy the evening sun that comes that way, it’s quite social when a group of neighbours can chat outside your house with a brew and a sit down!
If there’s a lot of you likely to be sitting on the bench then you might need two! Of course then you have to consider placement of the second bench, either in a row to face the same away, or facing each other!

Some people like cushions on their bench to make it comfy for sitting on for long hours – it’s entirely up to you! There’s a huge choice of benches available and these are on offer! Pick one that you like the look of and may it bring you many happy hours of use in your garden!

Picnic Table 1400mm - FSC 100%
Rawgarden Pine Picnic Table 1400mm. Ideal for pub gardens, school picnic areas and, of course, home settings, we are proud of this beautifully made pine picnic table with smooth round-edge corners. The Rawgarden pine picnic table is strong and hard-wearing – the timber is kiln-dried and pre-treated to category 3, giving it a 10 year plus life span. This can be further increased by a yearly treatment of sealer or protector. As part of the weathering process cracks will appear, this is the normal behaviour of timber and the furniture is designed with this in mind – its strength and durability remaining unaffected. Great for sitting out and eating in the garden or playing games at!
