We all love spending more time outdoors once summer arrives, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t try to keep your passion for DIY alive. If you love nature and hands-on activities, here are some fun outdoorsy hobbies worth trying this summer.

Gardening

If you have enough land in your yard to grow some fruits, vegetables, herbs, or flowers, make sure to put it to some good use. Gardening is a great summer hobby because you’ll spend some time outdoors, while also getting to reap the fruits of your labor.

DIY Oasis

You’ll spend a lot of time this summer in your yard, so put some effort into transforming it into a relaxing oasis. Make your own outdoor furniture, wind chimes, fire pit, and string lights to add a cozy ambiance to your outdoor space.

Woodworking

If you’ve always wanted to give woodworking a shot, summer is the perfect time to make it happen! Kick things off by building birdhouses and garden planters before moving on to bigger projects.

Nature-Themed Crafts

Put your summer walks and hikes to some good use and try to gather flowers, leaves, pinecones, seashells, and other natural materials along the way. You can later transform them into everything from pressed flower art and wreaths to frames and jewelry.
