Create an outdoor entertainment hub right in your own backyard. Whether you’re throwing a Fourth of July BBQ bash or enjoying family dinners al fresco, these projects will take your summer celebrations to the next level. With the natural beauty and durability of Real Cedar, you can build functional and stylish additions that will impress your guests. And when they go home, and you’re done playing hostess mostess, you can relax and enjoy your beautiful outdoor oasis in peace and quiet.
Each project comes with step-by-step how-to videos and free downloadable building plans. Here’s our summer round-up of projects that will make your outdoor space the envy of the neighborhood.
Table with Built-in Cooler
“I love it when people come over, and I can’t enjoy their company because I’m too busy fetching drinks from the fridge every five minutes,” said no host ever. Let your dinner guests top up their own drinks with this built-in cooler. Crafted from Real Cedar, this statement table is perfect for memorable family gatherings. Choose a knotty grade of wood for extra warmth and texture or create a clean, crisp look with a clear grade.
Compact BBQ Station
Don’t let size deny you the thrill of the grill. This compact BBQ station fits even the smallest patios but can easily become a centerpiece on larger decks. With its mobile design and timeless appeal of Western Red Cedar, it’s versatile enough for any space. The beautiful tonal range of the wood makes this design a definite standout. It’s also good to know that Real Cedar is pitch and resin-free, allowing it to accept and hold a wide range of finishes.
Tiki Bar
Bring a slice of tropical paradise to your backyard with a Real Cedar tiki bar. It’s the ultimate summer party starter. Ahh, if only the warm months could last forever. Thankfully, this design includes a front cover, so you can batten down the hatches come winter. Not only is this a cool-looking structure, but it’s also a green project. Wood, such as Real Cedar, helps fight climate change by absorbing carbon instead of emitting carbon like man-made materials. So it’s a choice you can feel good about.
Built-in Sectional
Transform your small outdoor space with this custom-built sectional. Lightweight yet durable, this Real Cedar furniture is resistant to rot and insects, guaranteeing minimal maintenance. It’s easy to build, and the removable seating panels double as handy outdoor storage. Plus, it’s made with Real Cedar, which is naturally resistant to rot, decay, and insects. So you can provide comfortable, stylish seating for summers to come with this stunner.
Standup Cooler Stand
This stylish Real Cedar mobile deck bar is the perfect beverage cooler for cottagers and city dwellers alike. In urban outdoor living spaces where space is limited, this compact drinking station can fit just about anywhere while leaving plenty of room for seating and the all-important BBQ. And for vast rural spaces, it keeps thirsty guests from having to run back and forth to the cabin kitchen for a cold one. It’s also a really fun little weekend project. The plans call for Real Cedar, which is a DIYer’s best friend – it’s easy to work with, takes fasteners exceptionally well, and tools love it.
