I like the details you're giving your greenhouse Chris. It's going to be beautiful as well as functional. Will the weather allow you to work on it this winter?

Thank you thistle,

I really hope that this winter will be as mild as last, if it is then I should get a good bit of work done.

That's a stellar looking greenhouse! What are your plans for the floor?

Thank you.

I'v been thinking about having gravel under the benches and either paving bricks or a plastic interlocking greenhouse flooring for the walkway.

That is looking really great! Your green house will give you lots and lots of goodies. I have a PVC frame we just wrapped in plastic for the winter. Ugly, but it works and we get tomatoes all winter!

Thank You,
This is my second here at my house the first one that I made here was made out of a old kids swing set.
Here is a picture of it.

haha!!! Love the swing set greenhouse! :lol: My PVC is shaped like that, but the eyesore is in the front yard, right by the front door. I first put it up 2 years ago, my DH grumbled about it, but being a good sport, he helped me wrap it, duct tape it, and get it ready for winter. He was delighted to have tomatoes all winter! Last year was a drought, so I didn't use it. This will be our 2nd time to use the eyesore redneck greenhouse and can't wait to start picking fresh tomatoes!

I have aspirations to build a greenhouse like yours someday...........
