Have you ever been hiking through the woods and exhausted from walking you take a seat on a fallen log to rest your tired feet? Well there’s a reason you chose that log over the rock sitting next to it. That’s because wood, even in its most basic form, provides a comfortable place to sit and relax.

Wood benches are as rich in history as they are in beauty. They can be traced back centuries to when they were used to rest ones legs when strolling through a park or garden. Today, not much has changed in their use but there are now many different styles and beautiful hand crafted designs to choose from.

There are several types of wood to choose from. The most popular types are cedar, pine, oak, and teak. If you can't decide between the variety of materials then here's what you need to know. Cedar and teak are both extremely resistant to mold and mildew; the natural oils in teak in particular are extremely water resistant. This means that you can leave the furniture out year round with minimal maintenance and it will always look good and will age naturally and beautifully. Over time teak will develop a beautiful silvery green color as oxidation occurs while cedar will maintain its rich color and smell that have made it so popular. The beautiful color of pine and oak make both an attractive choice. They both look great in their natural colors or even better when a wood stain is used, as they absorb it well.

Wood benches can be left outside in all seasons and all types of weather. Applying a wood sealant yearly will help to maintain the lustrous quality of your bench.

The bench is the simplest of outdoor furniture but its simplicity is what makes it so great. It needs no other pieces of furniture to make it look good. It stands alone as a striking piece that looks perfect in just about any outdoor setting.

Wood benches are the perfect addition for any backyard, garden, deck, patio, or gazebo. Just as they have for centuries, they will provide a comfortable spot for you to relax, rest your feet, and take in the beautiful surroundings.
