The term camp furniture may be a bit misleading. Take a look around any park picnic, backyard barbecue, or neighborhood block party- no tents in sight- and you’re likely to spot a few people relaxing in this wood-and-canvas furnishings. Lightweight and collapsible, yet sturdy and comfortable, they go wherever short-term seating is needed, then fold up neatly for easy transportation and storage.

Despite its workday reputation, camp furniture can be surprisingly stylish. Look for classic furnishings at camping-supply stores and neighborhood tag sales like a director’s chair, sling chair, or a camp stool.

Camp chairs with sling seats are ideal for lounging by the sea, especially when they have been updated with beach-worthy prints. Back a vintage state tablecloth, for example, with sturdy canvas. You can embellish a sling with a similarly printed fabric.

A customized camp stool makes for more than just a convenient seat. Artfully refurbished, it will function as a nifty side table in a sunroom or on a porch.

Or simply turn a camp cot into an elegant patio daybed. Throw pillows in coordinating colors provide a soft surface to lean against. Depending on your sewing skills, you may wish to enlist an upholsterer on this project.

Sit back, relax, and enjoy!
