I'm sure you've seen more of these lately... Stone fire pits, pizza ovens, seating walls... The outdoor masonry is booming! and I love it!

These custom builds adds value to homes and makes backyards feel like extensions of the house. More family-friendly too but it can get expensive fast, and DIY projects sometimes underestimate how much base prep is needed. So while it's a becoming a trend, it's not as fast as the home decor trends we see that use cheap materials.

I agree! A sturdy fire pit or seating wall can last a long time and feels more comfortable than cheap decor but it does cost more and takes extra work.
