DIY Outdoor Fire Pit Ideas



When it comes time to upgrade your outdoor living space, there are plenty of considerations to take into account to best suit a custom fire pit into your outdoor living room plans. How much space do you have to work with? How much planned seating area is there? Are you planning on an outdoor kitchen as well? Do you have existing entertainment space that is being modified, or are you looking to enhance your current situation? Well, I came across a website that has several outdoor DIY ideas to make your backyard the best it can be.

Keystone Retaining Wall Systems offers several pictures of examples of outdoor living rooms incorporating fire pits.

What you will notice about the majority of the examples are that the fire pits themselves become a centerpiece of the landscape and a natural gathering place for guests. Note there is plenty of room surrounding the fire pits for seating, some examples have actual stone seating structures built into the patio area themselves. Customizing your fire pit to suit your landscape is essential to creating a successful backyard landscape. Your fire pit must meet the size allotted in the backyard and the stone work must match the surrounding patio area.

The website also offers up other DIY ideas for outdoor kitchens, patios, planters, tree rings, fireplaces, retaining walls and more.

When you are ready to upgrade your outdoor entertainment space, let us know and well be happy to help you with any of your landscape questions and can help fit you with a custom fire pit appropriate for your backyard.
