Does anybody have a screen house for their trees in containers? I took apart my pretend greenhouse and started building a screen house to keep those pesky mosquitos out. Its also to keep my cat and dog out because they keep knocking over my small pots with with seedlings. I already lost half of my inventory. I was hoping to get some experiences/ideas from people here. I shall post pictures of my progress tomorrow. _________________ Okay, I don't need any more trees. Look! Another tree for sale!!! |

I was going for a look that doesn't fall down with high winds.
I was trying expand it towards our fire pit (thats what that bench is for)
But my wife doesn't want me to mess with the pit. When the kids move out I will just remove their swing set and take over that space. _________________ Okay, I don't need any more trees. Look! Another tree for sale!!! |

The inside has one coat of with paint. Almost all of it. I ran out of paint. Maybe I should have bought a bigger bucket. I will place the shade cloth and bug screen today. And maybe some shelves with the scrap pieces of wood. _________________ Okay, I don't need any more trees. Look! Another tree for sale!!! |

Nice job! Clean design and tight joints.

Thanks! The carpet was in the shed and I threw it out to look for the shade cloth. We finally put it to good use. I've been working on this for weeks now. A little bit here and there. Almost there... _________________ Okay, I don't need any more trees. Look! Another tree for sale!!! |
