The great news is, you don’t have to break the bank in order to create new features or areas for your backyard. Here are a few great DIY projects you can have some fun with:
Create a lounge chair using yard waste
Use a few logs to create a unique, rustic lounge chair that’s great for family barbeques and get-togethers. This project might require some woodwork skills and cutting and drilling equipment, but you’ll end up with something you won’t find in any furniture store.

Add an in-ground trampoline
To create an in-ground trampoline, all you really need to do is dig a hole large enough to fit your trampoline, and drop it in. Not only will you have a unique and quirky feature in your yard that doesn’t take up space, but your trampoline’s now safer for kids as well, as they won’t be falling from a short height in case they bounce off.

Make your own outdoor patio over the weekend
While it may not exactly be budget-friendly, creating your very own outdoor patio is a great way to enhance your backyard. Best of all, it won’t take too much time and effort, and you can make use of a lot of stuff you might already have around the house.

Construct a fire pit tabletop display
Some of us may not have the space or the budget for a full-size fire pit, so here’s a great alternative – mini fire pits that look beautiful, are portable, and will only cost you as little as $25. These things can be placed on side tables, used as a centerpiece, or as lights that provide a warm glow to your patio.
