Love the fire pits
I like the concrete fire pit and it looks easy to make. I’m excited to make one and toast some food. Thanks for sharing!
I’m being overwhelmed because a lot of nice fire pits are here. It seems to me the hardest part is deciding which one to build.
Wonderful Fire Pits Ideas 🙂
All the pits look great,I’m putting in a square style fire pit thank you for all the ideasDa
I like the square pit with the fire resistant cinder block caps, red lava rocks, and a bag of mortar. There is only a list of supplies and a picture of the completed project. Are there step by step instructions for those of us that need them?
Unfortunately for that particular project, I couldn’t find the detailed instructions because the original source couldn’t be found. However, a forum poster from the following link provides some basic instructions for this project: https://www.budget101.com/community/topic/diy-cinderblock-firepit-idea/ …. hope that helps!
