Five of the best homemade creations

A teenager from Austria built his very own miniature ski resort in his back garden, it's even got real snow.

Kevin created chair lifts, ski slopes, and skiers as part of his mini ski village. We think it's brrr-illiant!

This rollercoaster is in Lyle Pemble's backyard. He helped his dad design and build it in 2014. The ride is nearly 200 feet long and took about six weeks to build.

The coaster is powered only by the force of gravity and is made of wood. Definitely not one to try at home.

Tim Jones from Suffolk built a giant pirate ship in his back garden in September 2014 . He spent around six months creating the captain's cabin, deck and seven metre mast.

This family has been making statues out of Lego for years as a Christmas tradition, this 2016 one is of this giant polar bear. They start the project in mid October and it usually takes about 6-8 weeks to complete.

These are just a few of the models that the family have made over the years. The children started off taking part but now they are grown ups they're a bit embarrassed by their mum and dad's creations.

A group of friends in New York built an igloo in their back garden after snow caused lots of problems in January 2016 in America.

The igloo had blankets, cushions and candles inside. They even tried to rent it out for people to stay in. What a cool idea!
