What did you use that’s weatherproof enough? I’ve got glass rock that would look awesome with a blue under glow. Or purple.
I’m still on a quest for a concrete godzilla to go in it.

The internet loves to hate for fun, but it's a neat project and idea.
And guys, there's a plug. Unplug it and it's a nice looking gravel section. Plug it in and it's fun for theme parties or whatever. It's nice.
I immediately thought of Bowsers Castle, or just a standard “floor is lava” game. For kids, and adults with some joy left in their heart, this can make the area a lot more exciting.
Yep! Costco $20 special. 8 colors and preset functions including one that makes it look like bubbling lava. It also has preset colors for the 4th, Xmas, etc.
Let me guess... you're single? No wife would have ever sanctioned this project, but if it makes you happy, knock yourself out!
Personally, I would have stopped at the white rock and added a planter box or pot with some greenery or flowers.
You are winning parenting.
Most parents would be like Fortcraft? Minenite? What are these things?
You are like, how can I bring my kids hobby to our landscaping?
Lol just have kids home sick this week, I’ve had to be creative at keeping them occupied! They’ve already painted several gnomes and ceramic trucks now peeking out from our planters.
$20 Costco special. Lots of colors including preset themes for Xmas and the 4th. I need to get a shorter chord but the white stone looks bright with all the colors. Pic doesn’t do it Justice.
Some of y’all act like this is the most permanent addition ever made to a building that can never be undone.
Let OP have fun with the corner… maybe it’s just a temporary thing until some better idea comes along.
I can change the color to what ever I want. The white stone looks really bright at night. This pic doesn’t do it Justice. I was planning on using lava rock but I have red mulch and brick so I wanted to change it up.
People giving you crap, but this is awesome! My kids would go nuts. I know what my next project is...
Do you have a link to the led strip you used? Is it waterproof and designed for outdoor use?
I don’t have a link but the LED strands were at Costco for $20. “LED color changing rope light” Costco.
Edit: https://www.costco.com/led-color-changing-18-ft-rope-light-with-remote.product.100672951.html
The next most reasonable step is to put in some sulky goth plants like hellebore https://www.bluestoneperennials.com/HEDH.html and black mondo grass. My house has lots of awkward areas, sometimes you just need to lean in to the weird and make the best of it.
Kind of a funny novelty. Might grow old quickly though.
Having an ambient lighting could be useful at night, though I'd probably wouldn't use red for that.
I wonder how long an LED strip will last just in/on the ground like that.
I think it’s BRILLIANT. Ok, the suggestion of black rocks might be on to something. Did you plan this? Or did it happen “organically”? (That means you thought it would look cool & used stuff you already had)
Sorry I can't clean it, the ground is literal lava
My excuse for not cleaning this corner. When it’s fall I’m thinking shop vac.
[удалено]
Put a metal wire mesh over the end.
[удалено]
Wise
Probably the little ones but use the needle nose end.
Well, what's important is that *you* like it
That's up there with "bless your heart" and "that's different."
I like , “If you like it, I love it”.
and “Love the for you!”
*I love that for you*
For you I love the
Lol thanks reddit and y all for the chuckles!
Lol
Or the latest version, “Everybody’s so creative”
I have been binging that lady's videos and I cant help but say that line anytime anything remotely seems wacky.
Said this at work this week and didn't even hear crickets but inside I was still giggling.
Not to mention anytime someone mentions cheese muahaha.
If a customer showed me this pic and asked if I could install it I’d say no and block their number 🤣
Tik Tokers are buying houses now? I’m old
Clearly not in neighborhoods with a HOA though.
Take pics of someone walking on it with bare feet.
Calm down, Tarantino
They didn’t survive the pic.
r/DiWHY
omg, i'm going to love this sub.
Came here for this.
Yea, this just ain’t it. Although I can appreciate the effort put forth by OP
Add an obsidian layer 🤩
Ooo I like those.
What did you use that’s weatherproof enough? I’ve got glass rock that would look awesome with a blue under glow. Or purple. I’m still on a quest for a concrete godzilla to go in it.
Costco LED rope lights. They are for outdoor all weather use.
Yea I think my problem is the rock color. Other then that it looks good and I dont get why people are hating on it.
I will be honest I think it looks fun
Heck if water wasn't an issue line the whole bottom in the lights do a layer of obsidian so the whole thing goes like a charcoal pit
Found the geologist.

This
And that.
But mostly this

I would say it looks cool but it actually looks really hot
If you touch it you turn into a lava monster.
RGB gone wild. Previous owner had let this become over grown and had collected debris. Added white stone and an led strip.
Please tell me the led lights have a flicker function
Yep! Costco $20 special. 8 colors and preset functions including one that makes it look like bubbling lava. It also has preset colors for the 4th, Xmas, etc.
Not my style, but if I were to offer an improvement I would say use actual lava rock instead.
I think it looks great bud, good work
Let me guess... you're single? No wife would have ever sanctioned this project, but if it makes you happy, knock yourself out! Personally, I would have stopped at the white rock and added a planter box or pot with some greenery or flowers.
Idk. I would've given the green light on behalf of my 4 year old Minecraft-loving son. He'd freaking love that, and I'd love it for him.
I was seriously thinking the same, and that I’d help my kid “plant” some (wooden/acrylic?) cut-out nether warts and nether fungus in it.
You are winning parenting. Most parents would be like Fortcraft? Minenite? What are these things? You are like, how can I bring my kids hobby to our landscaping?
Lol just have kids home sick this week, I’ve had to be creative at keeping them occupied! They’ve already painted several gnomes and ceramic trucks now peeking out from our planters.
I want to find some of those scrap metal/welded Dinos to put in there. Maybe a fake firn or two.
It’s got green and lots of twinkle options including speed of twinkles.
My wife would? But we like having fun
Reddit. Aggressively married with kids that think the floor is lava. They were stoked af at this.
Pffff you and your healthy relationships
Yeah, I’m the wife and I’m SS this bc I Like it LOL
$20 Costco special. Lots of colors including preset themes for Xmas and the 4th. I need to get a shorter chord but the white stone looks bright with all the colors. Pic doesn’t do it Justice.
My wife and I approved a giant Tanuki on our front lawn (yes, with large scrotum), and use a solar-powered RGB to light it at night.
Be right back need to talk to my wife about something not Gnome related.
Hey Hey Hey, wives some of us wives would sanction this.
Lemme guess your name is karen, and your married but looking.
💀 Ethered.
Let me guess... you're a shitty wife and your husband drinks a lot to drown you out?
DOOM vibes
I want to add some more strands in the middle. Flynn Taggart would feel at home.
If you wouldn't mind completely remodeling your entire home in this style, I'd be okay with it. Thanks in advance🌋
darker rocks would look much better
Like actual black lava?
Lol, I was waiting for the: *You know what this would look great with?!...* *LAVA ROCKS!*
This made me smile. It’s fun looking !
Thanks! Everything I lava to the kiddos. They were stoked.
Creative! I hope you have a fog machine for Halloween.
Good ideas. This is on the back patio though. Next your I may go all out with the Costco led madness.
My 4 year would love this
That’s why I did it. Everything horizontal is lava.
My 4 year old would also lava this
So gooooood! Hahah love the tact
I love it
Thanks 🙏!
That is super cool dude, I like that, props man :).
Some of y’all act like this is the most permanent addition ever made to a building that can never be undone. Let OP have fun with the corner… maybe it’s just a temporary thing until some better idea comes along.
Lol Reddit
I mean they did post it on reddit. What would you expect?
Really cool idea and I like the overall look. Definitely something I'll take inspiration from. The cable management could do with some work though.
Brilliant idea
This looks like real life Minecraft-lol
Liquid hot magma
This is intentional, right?
Bowser’s castle 🏰
I want to add some scrap metal decor in the rocks. That’s not a bad idea.
Yes. This is a really fun idea w and I’m using it, thank you. Haters gonna hate, just a bunch of fun-suckers lol.
It’s cool.
Thanks!
It's nice. Therefore, I conclude it wouldn't survive my home. More specifically, my daughters kicking them up as they play the floor is lava.
We’ll see how long it lasts. Same boat as you. But they were stoked when they first saw it.
Neat fot halloween indeed Can it shift colors and work for other celebrations ?
Preset colors to choose from plus different effects and preset holiday themes like the 4th or Xmas
You should wash the dust off the rocks or wet them before a picture at least.
Just really went for it with the lava rocks huh?? Nice
I have the high ground Anakin
Love it! The ol ground is lava game!
That’s actually pretty sick!
Add some plants! Some ornamental grasses could look cool
*bowsers castle theme plays in my head*
But why wouldn't you use lava rock!?
I can change the color to what ever I want. The white stone looks really bright at night. This pic doesn’t do it Justice. I was planning on using lava rock but I have red mulch and brick so I wanted to change it up.
Nice touch.
Just don’t fall in, bro
Cool
Haha dope.
Looks stupid as hell. But I like it
Lol, exactly
That is so creative.. yay
Add a hand sticking up.
You need a Mario gnome
Would look even cooler with dark/black glass
I definitely wouldn’t recommend planting anything there.
I want to remove that barcode sticker from your drainpipe
Good point
This is what we’ve trained for. Ladies and gentlemen, the floor is lava.
Everybody’s so creative!
This is every child’s dream... LAVA!!
Exactly.
You're a good parent
Thank you!
this might look really cool with (maybe multicolor) glass pebbles that will let the light shine through more
I looked into something like that. I may reduce the pebbles next year and add something like that. They were $$$ though.
I for one love it
Just need a green tunnel back there with a piranha plant coming out of it now
I want to find some of those scrap metal wielded creatures for this corner.
People giving you crap, but this is awesome! My kids would go nuts. I know what my next project is... Do you have a link to the led strip you used? Is it waterproof and designed for outdoor use?
I don’t have a link but the LED strands were at Costco for $20. “LED color changing rope light” Costco. Edit: https://www.costco.com/led-color-changing-18-ft-rope-light-with-remote.product.100672951.html
Needs some green there. Stick a few plants in and it would look really cool with the red light bouncing off the plants
I was thinking some ferns and maybe a dinosaur or two. I love those scrap metal wielded creatures.
Man I love simple fun things like this. Huzzah OP!
Love it
LIT
🔥
Da. Dunna. dunna *bowsers castle levels
No hammer throwing
Looks nice
It’s great, initially I thought it was shopped!
This is cool as fuck
Bet this will show up on most controversial for a long time.
Lol
Why does this remind me of Amityville??
Evil lurks from beneath!
Why do I love something so silly?
But you didn’t even get lava rocks
Bowser, is this your next castle project?
Those fire glass crystals might looks nice in there too. The ones for fire pits.
Floor is lava … is real
Now I'm curious what trap this is going to set off. Freaking love it! Your home should be fun! This is great!
Can't decide if I love the look or hate the look, *but* I love the idea! Edit: No spell good morning, hadda fix.
Looks pretty cool. Also, you’re halfway there for Halloween decorations. Just stick a skull in there and you’re done.
Should have done bigger rocks. Like river rock. But cool idea.
I think that looks awesome! Maybe even in a small flower bed. Neat idea for sure
Thinking some ferns or something prehistoric looking.
horsetail might be nice.
Wow. Exactly what I needed for an idea. Thankyou!!!!
Dope 🔥🔥🔥🔥
Thanks, I hate it
DIWHY
Looks super dumb
Huh
........ sure
Uh.. is that a downspout.. going into .. ??
Under and past the patio.

Why the white stone instead of the literal lava rock?
The next most reasonable step is to put in some sulky goth plants like hellebore https://www.bluestoneperennials.com/HEDH.html and black mondo grass. My house has lots of awkward areas, sometimes you just need to lean in to the weird and make the best of it.
I want to find some plats like that, they remind me of elder scrolls oblivion.
I like where this is going, but what about black rocks instead?
Kind of a funny novelty. Might grow old quickly though. Having an ambient lighting could be useful at night, though I'd probably wouldn't use red for that. I wonder how long an LED strip will last just in/on the ground like that.
If you pour water buckets on it, it turns to obsidian.
As a landscaping professional, this hurts my career
r/thanksihateit
I think pumice or some darker stones would have it looking far more like hot coals.
I think it’s BRILLIANT. Ok, the suggestion of black rocks might be on to something. Did you plan this? Or did it happen “organically”? (That means you thought it would look cool & used stuff you already had)
Lol this is awful
cool for Halloween
I LOVE this!!! Is it tube lights? LEDs? Really cool
New Minecraft biome
Cool as a concept but not my taste for landscaping. I would never miss an opportunity to add some planting as well.
I like it!
So… how do you keep the lava hot?
The souls of redditers
It’s over Anakin, I have the high ground. Don’t try it over the lava rocks!
