Caring For Outdoor Bamboo Furniture
Outdoor bamboo furniture can add a tropical look to any garden or patio including bamboo chaises and the funky bamboo tiki bar.
While bamboo is a durable material, it is best to put this type of furniture under shelter from the elements whether it be on a porch or under an awning or simply covered with a furniture cover when not in use.
If you can't keep your outdoor bamboo furniture covered, you might at least consider keeping it off the ground - either on your deck or on a cement patio as the bottoms will eventually start to rot due to contact with the moist ground.
Bamboo is actually quite durable and will last for many years weathering to a silvery gray color. If kept out of the sun, the protective varnish on the bamboo will last longer and delay weathering.
Outdoor bamboo furniture can collect dust and pollen and other debris in the cracks or crevices and should be cleaned periodically. To remove the dust, try vacuuming the entire piece. There will probably still be some stubborn dust and dirt which you can scrub out using mild soap and water. Rinse to remove all soap. To help the bamboo to not dry out, try wiping with liquid wax or lemon oil.
Outdoor bamboo furniture comes in many stylish shapes and styles and is lightweight and durable with an oriental look. Bamboo chaise's are quite attractive and solid looking, folding chairs give style to extra seating and a bamboo tiki bar can be quite a conversation piece to your pool area or tropical patio.
