Besser block garden bench

fgrieve

Besser blocks, liquid nails and timber posts used to create an outdoor bench seat for a new garden.

The project

I am super happy with this little project, using all products from Bunnings. Simple yet effective.

I positioned the Besser blocks and painted them and used liquid nails to hold them together. Cut, sanded and stained the timber posts and slid these into the holes. Cushions can be added if you like.
