DIY Firepit Ideas

When you love the firepit but hate the smoke! Learn how to make your own DIY smokeless fire pit!

Here is a no-fuss stone fire pit that's perfect if you want sturdy results with minimal effort. Both kids and grown-ups will definitely love spending time around it.

A concrete fire pit is another budget-friendly option and it has a nice modern look that will wow your guests.

A lot of DIY fire pits are built using fire rings. They are definitely optional but will make the fire pit more durable in time and prevent the outer bricks from getting charred.

Starting with an old propane fire pit you can end up having this beauty in your backyard. And yes, I would dare to say that couch should also be mandatory!

What I love most about this particular project is how perfect the stones are arranged. It seems like the trick to getting them so nice and tight is using a rubber mallet.

Here's a fire pit project that's pretty simple and has a nice rustic look (even without the log seating). Speaking of seating, PrettyHandyGirl also has a tutorial for built-in firepit benches if you're up for a bit of woodworking. 

A fire pit table is also a brilliant way to transform your backyard. This one can also be used for grilling which is even better!

The fire pit and surrounding area have been transformed during a weekend and it was totally worth the effort. This is a great way to bring life to an otherwise forgotten corner of your yard.

This is probably one of the fastest, easiest and cheapest ways to build a fire pit. It doesn't use a metal ring, it's ready in under two hours and costs around $70.

The metal ring used for this fire pit comes with a small pivoting grill which makes it even more functional. It's definitely worth buying, don't you think?

If you're up for a little welding then you can surely DIY this modern fire pit with no problems. It has a very clean look but works just as well as the stone fire pits.

Last but not least, here is another super easy DIY fire pit. This one uses larger and smaller wedge wall blocks in between which makes it easier to fit them tight without too much effort and there will be no need to manually cut the stones to size.
