It’s about time that our backyard got some fun games, like this DIY backyard bean bag toss game!

Summer is here and I wanted to get the kids outside, but also have some fun activities for them to do when having friends over.

With just some plywood, paint, a riveter, rivets, power tools, and mesh, I easily created this fun DIY backyard DIY bean bag toss game.

Now, our backyard doesn’t have to be so boring!

For the complete list of materials I used, kindly visit my post.
You may actually paint the wood later, but I painted the wood sooner so that it could dry thoroughly. I didn’t want the paint to ruin the mesh.


TIP: The painting goes much faster if you use a roller!


DRILL HOLES FOR RIVETS. Before drilling the holes for the rivets, place a piece of scrap wood underneath of the plywood to prevent tear out on the other side from drilling. Drill 8 holes around each circle: at 12, 6, 3, and 9 o’clock, and spaced evenly between those points.
It’s probably easier to drill and sand the holes first before painting, but this way worked fine, as well.
