Fire pit area

It was time to say goodbye to our kids sand pit & cubby house and hello BBQ summer days and winter firer pit nights. 

we have used merbau screens for the fence with Un-Real hedge panels & created our own custom bench seat utilised more merbau screens also. 

this took us multiple weekends but the end result is totally worth it! 

cost wise, the fence was around $2000 & the bench seat/paving area was about the same including the pavers & rocks ect.

Re: Fire pit area

@flower,

 

If you look at @lcooksey88's photos on the first post in this discussion, you can see there's a portable fire pit with a timber panelled cover. 

 

If you need a hand with a fire pit project of your own, please don't hesitate to hit the Start a discussion button. We'd love to help.
