made by gently bending one by sixes and nailing them to spacing
blocks. Retaining wall is also redwood, which is ideal for the
purpose because it resists rotting and termite attack. Redwood’s
natural preservatives do not harm new plantings, as do some
chemicals used to impregnate non-durable woods.
You can increase greatly the utility of your yard for dining and
entertaining by paving part of it or installing a deck. With a patio
or deck, you can enjoy outdoor living earlier in the spring, later
in the fall, and sooner after rainfall. It adds living space to your
home at a fraction of the cost of a new room. -
Your “outdoor living room” can have efficient built-in furniture
as well as your family room inside. Combine the railing of your
deck, with a redwood bench to provide comfortable permanent
seating for guests; or, as in the picture above, top a retaining
wall with a bench, to seat your guests in one of the most pleasant
parts of the garden; near your plantings.
When planning your outdoor living room, consider Its “floor"
as carefully as you would a new rug for your parlor. You might
find redwood decking more comfortable to bare feet and func-
tional than concrete pavement—and more economical; or yon
might wish to combine decking with concrete, brick, or flagstone
paving.
The “walls" of your outdoor living room are also important.
There are many ways of adding individuality to the redwood
fence which forms a backdrop for all your outdoor activities. For
instance, try using a finish grade of lumber instead of the usual
lower grades—the handsome difference in appearance will be
worth much more than the slight difference in price.
