Revamped outdoor dining benches

Betsy took on the challenge of restoring her beloved 20-year-old outdoor dining set, and the results speak for themselves! The benches had definitely seen better days, with perished and missing slats making them uncomfortable and unsightly.

With a little help from our team, she sourced the perfect replacement wood—lovely macrocarpa, cut to the right size to match the original design. Our team assisted with measuring and ensuring the slats would fit just right. After some careful work, a bit of oil, and the generosity of a handy friend, Betsy’s benches now look brand new!

A fantastic example of how a little restoration can breathe new life into old furniture. Well done, Betsy!
