Upgrade Your Backyard with This DIY Sectional

Backyard DIY Sectional

Shara from Woodshop Diaries has crafted an incredible DIY modular outdoor sectional that’s both stylish and functional.

She designed it in three separate pieces:

A corner chair with two open sides and two one-armed sofas—a two-seater and a three-seater—that seamlessly connect to form an L-shaped configuration.

This modular approach allows you to customize the layout to fit your space, whether you prefer a five, six, or seven-seat arrangement.

Backyard DIY Sectional assembled

The design accommodates standard 24″ x 24″ outdoor cushions.

This makes it easy to find comfortable seating that matches your aesthetic!

Shara provides detailed printable plans with step-by-step instructions, cut lists, and 3D diagrams to guide you through the building process.

She also offers a video tutorial for visual learners who prefer to see the assembly in action.

This project is perfect for those looking to enhance their outdoor living area with personalized, handcrafted furniture.
