Want one?
How about making them yourself for your own patio or elsewhere, outdoors ? Adirondack Chairs are durable. This is why grandma still has hers… Yes, they are a statement of outdoor comfort.
However, we want them because these chairs are beautiful, and look forward to owning a set of chairs.
How to Make an Adirondack Chair
They are actually inexpensive to make, and when you use the plans provided here, you will see that they are designed for easy assembly, so that a novice can build them.
The seat has a nice curved recess to conform to your body, and wide arms to hold your favorite snack and drink. As this seat doesn’t slope steep-downward like traditional Adirondack chairs, they are easy to get in and out of.

Tools Needed
You only need a circular saw, a drill and simple hand tools to make this Adirondack chair. It’s designed for simplicity of construction so that, with patience, possibly a novice can do a great job. So, don’t be daunted, just begin!
Materials Needed
If you choose pressure-treated pine wood for this project, you’ll end up with a low cost, high strength chair with plenty of longevity.
Most outdoor wood furniture you find in furniture stores is made from cedar or expensive teak, but regular treated boards from your home center or lumberyard are perfect for this project.

Alternative Design – Free Adirondack Chair Plan
2016: Sorry your free Adirondack chair plan from homedepot.com are no longer available.
You can build our step-back version of the chair and love seat or experiment with other shapes to suit your sense of style.
Tip: Try the gable or round back shown below or draw a different shape on paper, tape it to the chair and step back to see how you like it.
Personally, I can see a round chair back with a Fleur de Lis painted in its center. But you can paint your chairs funky, romantic or nautical. Paint them white, varnish them, or rub them with teak oil: they are bound to delight. What do you want to do? Options are open. No worries about a drab green look of treated wood: simply brush on an exterior oil or latex stain and give it a beautiful warm glow that makes it look more like mahogany or teak than treated pine.
btw This Adirondack chair plan is accompanied by a free Adirondack bench pattern. Love that love seat!
