Backyard Transformations That Really Took It To The Next Level

What did you do while stuck at home? As it turns out, not everyone whiled away the hours baking bread, scrolling through social media, and watching TV. Some of us were actually productive. And if the idea of people rolling up their sleeves and getting to work on awe-inspiring backyard projects during lockdown sounds fictional, then get ready to be shocked. These DIY heroes made staying in look downright luxurious.

The ultimate playground

Our inner child is pretty much freaking out right now! There are so many elements to this backyard playground, that we don't know where to start: the adorable pool, the slide, the playhouse, and the trampoline all make for the ultimate play space. The kids in this house must have made unforgettable memories during quarantine!

Impressive workmanship

We can barely operate a screwdriver, let alone build our own patio furniture! Consider us extremely impressed with what this Redditor calls a "lockdown patio project." Add a couple comfy cushions, and this is one patio we'd never want to leave.

Cheers!

In this Redditor’s post-COVID vision of the future, he saw his backyard as a welcoming hub for neighbors, family, and friends. So, he got to work on making that vision a reality. Obviously, he succeeded. We’d like a tall piña colada with a tiny pink umbrella, please!

The power of a good makeover

While the rest of us were growing our hair long and neglecting to shave, this Redditor gave their backyard the ultimate makeover! The tangle of unseemly vines were removed along with the spooky shed, and a courageous weeding job revealed a cute stone walkway. Ah, the power of a good makeover.
