Summer is here and we couldn't be more excited at Eldon Furniture! If you are looking to have one of the best summers yet with your family and friends, having a great outdoor space is the first place to start. Not sure how to kick up the fun this summer? How about a few fun outdoor games that you can make yourself! Read on to get a few ideas for some outdoor DIY games from our furniture store at the Lake of the Ozarks!
Outdoor Twister
Twister is a classic game played by many over the years. Creating a twister board outside is simple. Ditch the plaster mat and make your own! All you need is a circle stencil and some spray paint! Pick your colors and make four rows of six circles and you have the perfect outdoor game! Don't worry about your grass, after you mow a couple times the game will disappear.
Bottle Ring Toss
Another easy DIY backyard game is to make bottle ring toss! Choose any kind of bottle that you have a surplus of or can gain access easily such as glass soda bottles, 2-liter bottles, wine bottles, etc...You can use anything for the rings such as glow stick necklaces or embroidery rings. You can paint the bottles to make them more fun or just leave them the way they are!
Yard Scrabble
This is such an easy game to put together and fun for everyone! All you need is some cardboard and any kind of materials to draw the letters on such as paint, markers, decorative tape etc.. Making your cardboard game pieces 12X12 is a good size but you can customize it any way that you want.
Giant Jenga
Putting together a giant Jenga game is super popular right now and surprisingly cheap and easy to make. All you need to do is cut 2X4 boards into 48 10 1/2 inch pieces. After you have your boards cut, sand them down so they are nice and smooth so they will slide easily. Paint the boards if desired or leave them plain!
