Anyone have a greenhouse?
- Thread starter dang
- Start date
Finished the wall yesterday. Hoping to be done with the inside today, minus grow boxes and tables.
This was my neighbors fence...

Has your neighbor noticed that his fence is gone?
I can't believe I missed the obvious answer to your question: yes, we all have greenhouses. Big ones. Our cars are famous for them. Glass for days.
Latest update. It's going really slowly since it's hard to work on the outside in the dark. Not worth setting up lights and it's been really cold so I'm not motivated. Windows are taking forever to scrape and paint but it's coming along. Used cedar shingles I got at an "estate" sale and the small window above the door with be stained glass when done.
looks very nice Dan!
I love the repurposed windows! 
Yes, I lucked out finding so many the same size or similar size but they do take a LOT of time to restore. And our "restore" is just making sure the paint won't flake off and painting over the different layers. It looks better than I expected because of their old school look to begin with.I love the repurposed windows!
I think you can fit a new Coupe project in there!
Electrical done. Overhead lights, string lights (switched outlet installed, lights to be added) and ceiling fan.
That looks killer. I have a spot picked out for one, maybe some day. I imagined a design very similar to what you built with the repurposed windows, though using shell rock on the bottom. For now, it's just a pad.
Really neat greenhouse Dan.
I made a mistake and showed my wife the pics!

Cool spot! That's half the project right there!
Lovely! Once my house is done we are going to decommission our plastic one and build a wood/glass unit. Thank you for the inspiration!
Our main use is overwintering outdoor accent plants, and starting annuals. We may opt to have a solid roof because we don’t need that much light.

Doesn't your light come in from the sides anyway?
