Backyard Firepit

Question

Hi!  We are wanting to create a firepit for our backyard.  We have solid bricks, and will purchase an already made insert for it.  We aren't sure if we want round or square!  Any ideas?

We stacked bricks in a circle to create our firepit, and it has stood up through two winters and done great. I feel like a circle is easier to gather around.

Hi Sue, it really comes down to personal preference. The curved lines of a round one seems more cozy to me, like a round table! Be sure to level the bricks as you build.

Hi Sue, For an in ground fire pit you can use either round or square and lay your protection around it in the shape you want. We have a round one and used a square pit and bricks, others have done just the opposite. It can be what YOU prefer. Here is an example of how my friend made hers: https://www.hometalk.com/37736140/backyard-firepit?r=2
