“Step-by-Step Guide to Crafting Your Own DIY Cornhole Lawn Game”
Our Opinion
Here at Cornhole Headquarters, we’re all about having a good time and bringing people together through the joy of our beloved lawn game. But we also know that not everyone has the means to purchase a pre-made set, which is why we’re here to share our top tips for crafting your very own DIY Cornhole set.
First things first, you’re going to need some materials. Head on down to your local hardware store and pick up two pieces of plywood, some 2x4s, a saw, some screws, and a drill. You’ll also want to grab some paint to give your boards a nice pop of color.
Once you’ve got all your materials, it’s time to get to work. Cut your plywood into two 2’x4′ pieces for the boards, and the 2x4s into four 2′ pieces for the frame. Use your drill and screws to attach the frame pieces to the boards, making sure to leave a 6″ gap at the top for the cornhole.
Now comes the fun part – decorating! Get creative with your paint and make your boards unique to you. You can paint them solid colors, create a fun design, or even add your favorite sports team logo.
Once your boards are dry, it’s time to set up your game. Place them 27 feet apart (regulation distance) and start tossing those bean bags. And don’t forget to invite your friends over for some friendly competition!
So there you have it, folks. A simple and cost-effective way to enjoy the game of Cornhole without breaking the bank. Now go forth and DIY your way to Cornhole glory!
