WRCLA.org  Western Red Cedar is perfectly suited for your outdoor projects. Naturally decay-resistant, light in weight, easy to work, this durable wood is as practical as it is good looking.

These designs, by the Western Red Cedar Lumber Association, contain helpful pointers on constructing home-enhancing arbors, trellises and pergolas. They have not included step-by-step building instructions as they are simply a source of ideas - concepts you can build on to meet your own outdoor living needs.
