DIY OUTDOOR SOFA
I´ve mentioned earlier that we made a DIY outdoor sofa on the top level on our terrace, and now with the new pillows it not only looks better, but it´s much more comfy as well. My plan was actually to make pillows myself, but when I found these in the right size at an affordable price at Ikea, I bought some instead.
To make the sofa we first made a solid frame using treated materials, before we covered the fronts and sides with the same type of panel as we used on the railing on the terrace. On the top we used the same decking as we have on the rest of the terrace.
The height on the sofa is all together approx. 50cm and the width 60 cm.
After treating the wood with Jotun Visir, we painted it in the same color as the house and railing – Optimal 9938 Dempet sort.
The sofa works perfect as a sun bed as well, and with the pillows it´s now a new favorite place to spend our time whenever we are out on the terrace.
And with this relaxed setting, I´m now taking a few weeks off to enjoy summer here in Norway. There will still be some updates on my blog, but most of the action will be on my Instagram.
I wish you all a lovely summer! If you are in need of some simple and fun activities to do in the summer, you can check out my Stylizimo´s Summer Checklist.
