[ HandMade GreenHouse ]

 

This is not A HOUSE, to be honest. What would you call this?

Plant Closet? Germinating Cabinet? ;)

Well, anyhow...

 

 

I had a dream.

It wouldn't leave me alone. So...

 

...I began my project by gathering suitable supplies

[ second hand stuff, naturally, as far as possible].

What did I need?
 

 

Seven old windows, more or less the same size.
Some wood for the frame.
Four wheels, six pairs of hinges, few screws.

A saw, a screw-driver and a vacuum cleaner.

 

[ YES, the windows were dusty! ]

 

 

 

Sand paper, masking tape, paper to protect the surfaces,

a brush and some paint.

 

 

[ I found this grey-blue paint by the recycling tanks.

Yes; un-opened, ready-mixed, suitable for doors and windows outside.

One liter was just enough!

Thank you, my unknown neighbour! :) ]

You'll definitely have a good idea of what to put inside it, won't you?

Flowers, herbs, salad, pepper, tomatoes... You name it!

But how?

My husband [ yes, he is so much better with tools like a lock saw ]

carefully cut and fastened laths for the selves.

 

These selves are actually metal gratings from old kitchens,

found from a rubbish container again.

They are adjustable, which helps the plants to grow.

 

This was a demanding task, but not impossible.
And 100% worth it, don't you think?
