An outdoor bench isn't only for park use. It can be used indoors. They can be just as nice to sit in, as any upholstered sofa, patio chair, or armchair.
When used indoors, a park bench becomes the center of attention, in the room that it's in because of its iron frame and wooden body. It would be good to make the space around it seem to be just as full of bold character as the bench.
You've wanted to feel the great outdoors in your home for the longest time. Now, you have an outdoor bench. What do you do? You place it in your den. A chair like this deserves to be in the middle of the room, no matter its make. Surround it with plant boxes and seedling boxes which have lush clover, delightful sweet pea or other fragrant garden herbs in them. Try this suggestion of plants, only if your room has ample light from the outside.
Think of a recreational park and then turn your den into a room that looks like one. Hang something for the birds, by the window. Buy a bird bowl or make one out of papier mache. Making one won't cost you as much as buying a new bird bowl.
For a room that has good lighting, put some seed planting boxes around your park bench. Plant a mix of low growing seedlings such as sweet pea, clover, or types of garden herbs. Hang a bird bowl by the window; you can buy this or you can make your own papier mache model. Mount a baseball mitt and bat up on the wall. Choose a corner and build up a pile of sports balls there. Now, your den really looks like a park.
For your porch, use an outdoor bench to feel like a character from a Victorian novel or play. Place side tables by the arms of the park bench. On top of each table, add a mini ornamental tree with round fruits on it. Arrange a small collection of vintage hardbound books, frames of butterflies or frames of dried leaves and flowers, on the tables. Add a bowl of potpourri to each arrangement. Then sit on the bench, with these new decorations beside it; you'll start to think of eating pop corn balls and toffee apples, while watching 4th of July fireworks when you're seated there.
Lastly, if you use this bench as a love seat, for a fun gathering, don't hesitate to indulge in giving your home more than just a touch of romance. Bring out those plush, red satin throw pillows and stack them up on the bench. Place a very large vase that's just as tall as the bench, and fill it up with an arrangement of lush flowers.
Then, bring in a string of faux pearls. You can drape the string of pearls on the bench. Later, when the lights are dim, wait for someone special to kiss you on this nicely decorated bench. These are only three examples of the many ways that you can use your outdoor bench, indoors. - 30241
