My Proudest DIY?

I've done a lot of projects I loved but I chose my DIY Greenhouse for this weeks #ProudestDIY topic because this is the one that brought me to the Hometalk community, something I am very happy to be a part of! And since it's time to start those cold weather crops, it's seems a fitting project to re-share :) Full tutorial in the link. #gardening
Time: 2 Hours Cost: $50 Difficulty: Easy

    What a brilliant idea, I went over to your site and read all about the making.... We are still in the snow zone and can't plant till June:( I enjoyed seeing your tomatoes growing, and loved the idea of the hose as clamps on the plastic.

    I love it. Even I can do this if I had the money (lol). It is the best and easiest I have seen so far. Plus, I think it can be made even cheaper with 1 x 4's. Then here in Florida, save the wooden frame and the rest of the poly till next winter, we don't really need such but a few nights a year here in NE Fla from the cold.

    Sheryll S This frame is really easy to assemble and if space is a concern, once it's not needed it wouldn't be difficult to store vertically against a garage or shed :)

    This looks like a cheap copy of the Garden Master System. You can just Google TheGardenMaster to see it.

    Thanks everyone! It's meant to be quick, easy and cheap :) Perfect for a little protection and not a big commitment.

    Oh Shelley, I so agree! It is the best one I have seen. I just don't have any money to do the simplest thing still. It is on my wish list though.
