Outdoors > Garden > How to Build a Wood Arbor for Garden or Yard

Learn how to construct a cedar garden arbor with built-in benches.

Center a uniformly thin, flexible strip of wood on the top row of nails. Rest the strip above the top center nail, bending it gently so that its ends are under the two outer nails. Let any extra length protrude evenly at the ends. The strip is of a uniform thickness, so it bends consistently and describes a graceful arch.
