The Best Functions for Your DIY Conservatory

A conservatory can only be fully functional during the winter months. At least that’s what many people believe. In a traditional sense, that’s the main function of a DIY conservatory – to serve as a hang-out place for the household when they cannot get outdoors because of the biting cold. However, there are other uses for a conservatory. In fact, it can be fully functional even in the summer or spring seasons.

 1. Family gymnasium

Even without a gym membership, your family can stay fit and healthy even within the premises of your home. You can turn your conservatory into a mini gym. You can practice your yoga meditation here during the late afternoons or early mornings. Without actually going outside, you will feel the sun seeping through the glass windows and panels.

 2. Cozy dining area

There are times when the family gets together; everybody’s home and the only way to celebrate it is over a good homemade dinner. Set the table and chairs in your conservatory under the clear night sky and share good food, laughter and stories with the whole family. Spending dinner outside of the kitchen will give a feeling that you are outside in a fancy restaurant when in fact you are having dinner in your multi-functional conservatory.

 3. Children’s play area

When you have little kids at home, you want them to explore but at the same time be safe from harm which is commonly met outside the house. Turning your conservatory into a play area for your kids is a good idea. They can see the plants and sky outside but they are still within the safety of your home. Just make sure that the doors are locked so they will not have any chance of wandering outside. Do not let them reach the glass windows and panels too. And also make sure that they cannot get their hands into something hard that they could throw at the glass. Child proof your DIY conservatory before making it into a play area.
