My Brother's Creative and Handy DIY's

Happy weekend everyone!

Yesterday, as I was sitting in our backyard, eating my breakfast, I looked around and realized I was surrounded by few of my brother's creations. The bench I was sitting on was also one of them. So I took some pictures and decided to share them with you. My brother can make pretty much anything. He is also very good at fixing all kind of things in and around the house. His passion and favorite things to work on are cars!

DIY's

This one I already shared in some of my previous posts. There's two of these benches we use a lot during the summer. There's also cushions that my brother made for them so it's comfortable to sit on but since it was raining, they were inside the little storage thing we have. As you can probably tell, the benches were made from palettes.

This little stool was made for my niece when she was younger. My brother took this material and changed the outside, covering it all over. Since this one is few years old, well used and it's been outside a lot, it has seen better days. Maybe it's time for another change!

A swing made from a tire. There is also a cushion for this one, made on a round piece of wood that fits perfectly, with a thick sponge so it's comfy and covered with a very nice, red, leather looking material. Again, inside because of the rain.

Finally, this is the bicycle seat for my nephew, made from scratch. It is safe, with a seat belt, a handle and a place for his legs, which you can't really see on this photo. My brother and nephew go on a bike ride almost every day, so this one is also well used.

"The Office"

This is where all these and a lot more things were made. It's our garage as well as my brother's place to fix and create things. It is spacious, filled with tools, all kinds of smaller machines and all that jazz. Even though this is not my brother's full time job, it is his favorite place to be and he spends a lot of his free time here.
