1. If you have a formal English garden, decorate it with an antique metal garden bench. With intricate wrought iron bench detail, delicate flowers, and a fluffy bench pillow, it will be the perfect foil for your flowery oasis.
2. The playful attitude of a wicker garden bench looks perfect in a natural setting, and with the addition of a colorful bench cushion, it will only enhance the scheme you've chosen for your outdoor space.
3. A glider bench - one that offers a peaceful rocking motion - is a lovely option for any garden.
4. Finding a matched set of garden furniture that includes a garden bench, coffee table, accent table, matching chair, or loveseat can turn your outdoor space into an outdoor room.
5. If the seats on your patio benches are worn out, consider re-cushioning, but be sure to measure the seats before you leave for the store.
6. Stay within a half-inch of your original bench cushion measurement when you go shopping. Most are soft and will eventually give for a good fit.
7. If you have trouble finding a good-fitting bench cushion, consider the custom option: it's pricey but ensures the perfect fit, fabric, and style.
