How to Build an Outdoor Chaise Sectional

Hey friends, let's add a chaise sectional to the matching outdoor furniture collection!

Last year, I shared several matching pieces of outdoor furniture that were some of my all time favorite projects. But ever since posting, I've gotten SO many requests to add a sectional version to the mix.

Since I wasn't sure what style of sectional people wanted, I decided to build both--starting with the chaise sectional I'm sharing here.

Be sure to stay tuned, though, because I'll be sharing another version of matching sectional next video you won't want to miss!
