Complete your garden with self-made improvements

Do you also dream of a lovely outdoor spot where you can fully enjoy every ray of sunshine? Piet shows us how, with a little creativity and dexterity, he transforms his garden with homemade additions that are both functional and stylish.

The transformation of an old garden bench

Piet got to work renovating a weathered garden bench. Where the wooden furniture previously showed signs of decay, you now see a sturdy and renovated seat. This DIY project shows how you can completely replace a seating surface of the sofa with plywood Okoumé panels from OPMAATZAGEN.nl. The warm wood color gives the bench a fresh look, making it shine again in a green oasis.

From worn garden door to sleek entrance

Not only has Piet breathed new life into the garden bench, he also the garden door has been tackled. A rotten garden door has been replaced with a new, sturdy one made of Okoumé plywood, which is moisture resistant and therefore perfect for outdoor use. With a sleek design and a smooth closing, the door now offers privacy and security.

A harmonious style and finish

The uniform style of the sofa and the door create a coherent whole in the garden. The light color of the Okoumé plywood fits perfectly with the green tones of the outdoors and offers a calm and inviting atmosphere.

Why making it yourself is so beneficial

By choosing a DIY do-it-yourself project like Piet's, you have the freedom to fully adapt the dimensions and material to your wishes. Ordering custom panel pieces from TOSIZE.ie ensures that you don't waste materials and that you stay within budget, while creating a sustainable product.

Okoumé Plywood is an excellent choice for outdoor projects. This type of wood is extremely moisture resistant and due to its thickness of 12 mm it provides a sturdy base for both garden furniture and exterior doors. The smooth finish makes it easy to treat and paint, and the wood structure immediately gives a natural look.
