Execution ground: 7 simple ideas on how to effectively equip a campfire site in the country
It is not necessary to spend a lot of money and effort to create an atmosphere of comfort and warmth on the garden plot.
There is nothing more enjoyable than gathering around a campfire with friends in the evening. You can prepare such a place without much cost and labor. We will tell you how.
Kostrovaya
For a fireplace, you need to choose a place where trees do not lean over the flame, and greenery does not grow within a radius of two meters, and fences and any buildings are not located. For a budget option, the fireplace can be located in the ground. Pulling out a hole, decoratively revet it using safe materials:
natural stone;
refractory bricks;
concrete blocks;
paving slabs;
ring for a well.
Some craftsmen take a drum from an old washing machine for a campfire tank, a used rim of a truck, a barrel, a basin, a boiler, a bucket, a disc from tractor wheels. Then it is covered with a stone.
For a mobile fire that can be moved to another location, creative hosts even use a metal cart.
To prevent the grass from igniting, it is customary to lay out a small area of pebbles, stones, granite chips around the fire. Nearby, a place is being set up for gathering friends.
Seats
For seating, it is enough to arrange wide stumps – it looks very original and fits into the natural landscape. If the general style of the site dictates other conditions, then you can put artificial rattan chairs, which will not need to be hidden from the rain and sun. There is an interesting version of the arrangement, similar to the place of execution on “House-2”, where wooden benches are very skillfully placed and a fence of brushwood is built.
For decoration, pillows and mattresses in covers are placed on chairs, benches, sun loungers and swings. Fabric cases will add color to the interior, and soft seats will help guests stay comfortably for a long time. If the common table is far from the fire, then a few stumps will not hurt, on which you can put drinks and snacks by the seats.

If you carefully lay firewood next to the firewood, then this can become part of the decoration of the summer cottage. Place a support near which you will store the logs. Place chips and brushwood nearby.
Lighting
One of the main highlights of the space is lighting. In addition to the main light that can come from a street spotlight, decorate the area with solar-powered lanterns. They are sold in all interior stores that specialize in gardening goods. Budget lamps should be placed under your favorite colors, along paths, near decorative sculptures, next to snack tables.
Figures and sculptures
In any fabulous space, and this is precisely the plot in the country, its heroes live. Nowadays, there are many creative figures for sale on the Internet that will suit any style. These are gnomes, hedgehogs, and sculptures imitating stone idols from Easter Island. Arranging them at your discretion, you can create a fantastic coloring of the site.
Bowls with flowers
Any greenery in homemade containers will look perfect next to the sculptures. There can be many stands for “flower pots”: these are unnecessary buckets that you paint or decorate with burlap, and rotten hemp, in which you can install plastic containers for plants.
For planting one-year-olds, unnecessary shoes and dishes are suitable. Petunia will look great in a boot next to the campfire. And let the marigolds peep out of the old teapot.
