Choose a flat area in your yard, ideally with a clear view of trees or open sky. Then level it and spread a layer of sand or gravel to create a fire-safe base.
Position the metal fire pit in the center and ensure it sits stable.
Arrange seating using logs or stump stools around the pit, keeping at least three feet of space for safety.
Add blankets, cushions, and lanterns for a warm, rustic touch. Then stack dry wood in a teepee shape for your first fire and light it safely.
