There is never enough storage outside on the deck, porch or patio. I’m always having to run to the garage to look for a yard game, candles, small garden tools or a couple of outdoor pillows for that afternoon book.

So whether you have a small garden space, or just want to maximize your organization, we found some solutions to both problems! These DIY outdoor storage benches are a great idea for adding additional seating and always making sure that bocce ball set is just within reach.
