DIY Hot Tub Privacy Screen

05 June

I am finally able to start sharing that patio makeover I've been promising! It was a post I wrote for Wayfair's Ideas and Advice pages so I had to wait for the post to be approved and published on their site and that sometimes takes a while.


I wrote three patio-related articles for them, the first being how we made a DIY hot tub privacy screen for the patio.


This is at my boyfriend's house and he had the hot tub already. His backyard is pretty private already, there is a retaining wall and a big hill right outside the back door. At the top of that hill is the golf course and you would have to walk right up to the top of that hill and look over to see down into his backyard, it has happened but it's not too likely! The neighbors, on the other hand, could easily see if they were to walk to the top of the hill on their properties and look over.


We decided that a nice privacy screen around the hot tub would be just what we needed for that additional level of privacy.

You can check out how we made this DIY privacy screen over on the Wayfair site, Patio Privacy: How to Create a DIY Privacy Screen.

We built the short wall far enough away from the hot tub so that we could slide the lid in between the wall and hot tub while we are in it.

Silly as it may seem, this heart is my favorite part. I made it from an old barrel ring that he had lying around. 😊

Here is an evening shot with the hot tub lights on. We added robe hooks next to the back door and solar-powered twinkle lights along the top of the screen.

This DIY privacy screen was really very simple to make and pretty inexpensive too as you'll see in the article. It gives us that little bit of added privacy that we needed!

  2. The screen turned out great! Even though it's pretty private already, that adds a little extra security.

    1. Yes, just a little additional privacy was all that was needed, plus it kind of defines the hot tub area :o)
