Just as promised, here is the newest addition to our new outdoor collection. This Outdoor Slatted Armchair pairs perfectly with the Outdoor Slatted Loveseat. Go ahead and plan that big end of summer party – we have you covered!
This plan was custom made to fit these fabulous cushions with a smattering of these for the back! You can also buy this combo set if you prefer. Cushions have a way of being super expensive, so we took the chore out of this task and designed the piece to fit them perfectly. A great price and gorgeous color selection – hard to beat!
As with all of our plans, you are building at your own risk and you should have a firm understanding of building in general before you attempt many of our plans (some are easy as pie and perfect for beginners). With that, go forth, have fun, take lots of pictures and share them in a showcase on the site or on social media with the hashtag #builtTDCtuff and we will share our faves! Be sure to tag @thedesignconfidential on Instagram / FB and @thedesconf on Twitter / Pinterest. Don’t forget… for all of our newer plans, clicking on the images will let them expand to enormous sizes with much greater clarity. The older plans may need updating so please let us know if you need one fixed!
