Adding Cedar planter boxes to your outdoor area to give it a boost; by Glenn Mast

If your garden or outdoor area could use a boost, you may want to consider adding planter boxes. Planter boxes are a great way to add color and style to your outside entertainment area. They can be purchased here at Amish Furniture Crafts. Whether you love flowers, plants, growing your own vegetables, or even if you don't have a green thumb at all, planter boxes can be used for both function and decoration.

One of the most common and ideal materials used in the construction of planter boxes is cedar. Cedar is a stable and lightweight wood. It stays straight and lies flat, helping it resist cracking and splintering. Eastern Red Cedar, which is frequently used in the manufacture of outdoor spaces, is also great for them. A cedar planter box resists decay and rot, since the wood contains natural oils and preservatives. The aroma of cedar, which is usually pleasing to people, is offensive to most insects, moths and other critters.

A cedar planter box is available in many styles and sizes. You can find them as a traditional, contemporary or country design. Depending on your needs, you can purchase a small cedar planter box (perfecting for growing a few herbs for your kitchen) or a large cedar planter box, which opens up endless possibilities.

 If flowers are not your thing, you can use your cedar planter box for plants, bushes, vegetables, and just about anything else you would like to grow.
