Things you’ll need

  • Four similar sized window frames with clear transparent glass
  • One window of a bit smaller size but of same width
  • Wooden pallets and handle to open it
  • Drill, two hinges and screws

Step 1

Gather all the items listed above. Clean the windows and paint the frames with your favorite color. Pick the windows one by one and drill holes in each frame so that you can screw and join them later to make a green house structure.

Step 2

Fix and join all the similar sized windows from all the four sides together using screws. Leave the top and bottom part of the structure.

Step 3

Put the smaller window on top of the joined structure and measure how much space is left open.

Step 4

Take a pallet, cut it to the measured size and fix that on top of the remaining open space of windowed structure.

Step 5

Screw both of the hinges on wooden board and screw the fifth window on hinge and also fix a handle on the frame of fifth window so that you can open and close your glassed green house easily.

Now take a deep breath, your very own green house or you can say a DIY hothouse is ready to use. Place it in a warm corner of your small garden and put in your potted plants and seedlings. It’ll not take much space and remain cozy in winter.

  • Any thoughts on using it as a way to get started on the plants in the winter? Adding a grow light or the means to keep the space warm?
