Coffe Table Decorating


You do not have to be the most creative person on the block in order to do this. You just have to follow some of these ideas and you will come away with a table that looks much better than it does right now, believe it or not.

Buying Wooden Garden Furniture Tips


Here we discuss some tips for buying wooden furniture.

Decide the Type of Wood You Want

Wooden garden furniture sets are available in different types of wood like teak, cedar, mahogany, eucalyptus, oak, pine, and bamboo. If you want something that can withstand rough weather conditions and last longer, you should choose teak. Teak furniture requires minimal maintenance and is resistant to moulds and termites. But, it is expensive. Eucalyptus is another good choice for outdoor furniture. It is sturdy and looks great in natural finish. Pine garden furniture is aesthetically beautiful, but can get damaged easily if kept in sun or rain for long. Cedar outdoor garden furniture is quite popular. It does not warp and split with aging. Moreover, it is resistant to insects. Whichever wood you choose, you should ensure that you cover your furniture when not in use. Paint it regularly to keep it looking new for years.
