If you’ve got some decking boards leftover from a recent project, there are plenty of ways you can put them to use. Not only does it avoid waste, but it also adds an extra touch to your outdoor space. Best of all, they can be stained, treated and painted without fuss so that they’re easy to integrate into your existing garden aesthetic and have some protection from the elements.
