how to make a fire pit in your backyard
After doing some research, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that it’s really not that hard to build your own professional-looking fire pit.
It’s a pretty easy process to plan out, and although it does take a bit of muscle to complete, it’s totally worth a bit of cardio. Ready to create your own backyard campfires (and get an arm workout in the process)?? Good, let’s get going!
Concrete landscaping stones and metal fire pit ring (optional). You can buy the stones by themselves or in a kit that comes with a metal ring.*

Before you start your fire pit, you’ll want to check on the recreational fire codes for your area to make sure that a fire pit is allowed (you can call your local fire department if you aren’t sure).
Keep in mind also that you don’t want anything hanging above your fire pit, so even if a base of a tree is 10 feet away, you don’t want to have branches hanging directly above the fire pit.
*NOTE: You can get your landscaping stones from your larger hardware stores (like Lowe’s or The Home Depot), but make sure to also check smaller local hardware stores (and specifically stone and landscape businesses) to see what other types of stones are available.
