A tree fort is something that enriches the lives of children immensely. I really wanted to build a tree fort for our grandchildren, but did not want to put anyone in danger by having a structure that was too tall. When we found this $1oo DIY tree fort video tutorial by Jessa Seewald on YouTube, my husband and I knew this idea was going to be perfect for the needs of our grandchildren, and the price point was perfect for us. We started this project by drawing up some plans and building the frame out of the four by four’s we found in our wood bundle.

Materials For The DIY Tree Fort:

  • Bundle of wood that may be on sale (all sizes)
  • Screws
  • A hammer
  • Nails
  • A saw
  • A carpenter’s square
  • A ruler
  • A level
  • A slide
  • A captains wheel (for interior decoration)

Since I lover experiments, I’ve alwaysnloved to create, paint, as well as cook and style food. I feel in love with DIY as soon as I discovered it and could not have been more excited when I learned I could share projects with people around the world. Taking photos is a passion of mine, as is design and painting with oils. I love holidays and celebrations, crafting cute little gifts and serving up at least one new recipe I am excited about.
