If you use your deck or patio like a kitchen, why not furnish it Like one? Trex has a new line of outdoor storage to help you do just that. There are base cabinets with built-in coolers, garbage cans and hampers. Or store your blankets and seat cushions in large, under-bench cabinets. There are a couple dozen different configurations to choose from.
The panels are PVC (available in five colors), and the hardware is all stainless, making the entire collection 100 percent waterproof. A base cabinet with one drawer and one door costs $998. That's not cheap, but impressing your friends and neighbors rarely is. For more info, go to trexoutdoorstorage.com.
