Cinder blocks are one of the cheapest and easy to use building materials on the market. My husband and I were looking for an ideal building material to build an outdoor kitchen on our patio, and we found this awesome DIY cinder block video tutorial by TC Capital on YouTube, that looked really easy and perfect for our needs. The overall look of this cinder block bar scape project is very modern looking and reminded my husband and I of poolside outdoor kitchens, we had seen in Palm Springs. Bottom line was, that this project looked way more expensive than it actually was. That pricepoint really pushed us over any doubts we may have had about the cinder block idea. The other interesting thing is that you really could look at this as a base material to resurface. Tiles or just about any other material could be laid on top of a cinder block, so there was a lot of room to grow with this idea.

Materials:

• Cinder blocks
• Cement
• A trowel
• A leveler
• A shovel

Directions:

In this awesome DIY cinder block video tutorial by TC Capital on YouTube, you will see this entire project built from the ground up. 

Then, the appliances are brought in and fit smoothly into the designated areas. There is also a bar area that adds a lot of visual appeal.

This bar and barbecue area is so cool! We are going to cover ours with saltillo tile, but it certainly looks great just left in its raw natural form.
