An outdoor bench isn't only for park use. It can be used indoors. They can be just as nice to sit in, as any upholstered sofa, patio chair, or armchair.
When you purchase this type of bench for indoor use, remember to rearrange the furniture and the other home decor items which will surround the bench, in the room where you?ll be placing it. Since it's a relatively large piece of furniture, it tends to become the centerpiece in that room once it's there.
You've wanted to feel the great outdoors in your home for the longest time. Now, you have an outdoor bench. What do you do? You place it in your den. A chair like this deserves to be in the middle of the room, no matter its make. Surround it with plant boxes and seedling boxes which have lush clover, delightful sweet pea or other fragrant garden herbs in them. Try this suggestion of plants, only if your room has ample light from the outside.
Think of a recreational park and then turn your den into a room that looks like one. Hang something for the birds, by the window. Buy a bird bowl or make one out of papier mache. Making one won't cost you as much as buying a new bird bowl.
For a room that has good lighting, put some seed planting boxes around your park bench. Plant a mix of low growing seedlings such as sweet pea, clover, or types of garden herbs. Hang a bird bowl by the window; you can buy this or you can make your own papier mache model. Mount a baseball mitt and bat up on the wall. Choose a corner and build up a pile of sports balls there. Now, your den really looks like a park.
For your porch, use an outdoor bench to feel like a character from a Victorian novel or play. Place side tables by the arms of the park bench. On top of each table, add a mini ornamental tree with round fruits on it. Arrange a small collection of vintage hardbound books, frames of butterflies or frames of dried leaves and flowers, on the tables. Add a bowl of potpourri to each arrangement. Then sit on the bench, with these new decorations beside it; you'll start to think of eating pop corn balls and toffee apples, while watching 4th of July fireworks when you're seated there.
If you'll use a park bench as a love seat, for a mixers party, don't be afraid to get romantic. Use satin pillows to soften the hard look of an outdoor bench. Fill a large vase with a bright flower arrangement. Make sure that the vase is as tall as your bench.
Drape a long string of faux pearls around the recliner of the bench. Then, the only thing missing is who'll be kissing who in the next round of spin the bottle, don't you agree?
