I love being able to reuse, recycle and do-it-myself so when I saw these several ideas I simply had to share them here. Almost every single thing here can be made of reclaimed wood and things already at hand.
A completely easy and doable treehouse. One you can make in an afternoon. I'd love to settle there, big cushions around, reading my books...
Pillows, cushions and blankets in/out of a tent for backyard camping. Every kid would love this!
What a great idea to have a chalkboard outside for the kids to draw!
Hula hoops and a piece of fabric make a great hideout as do
And at the end of the day I wouldn't say no to this giant hammock swing:)

And of course - something for the grown ups too. A simple bar for entertaining. Amazing!
