Just for fun , I thought I ’d fill out up five mere DIY garden builds I ’ve create and know using around my own garden . Each one is beginner - favorable , budget - conscious , and guaranteed to add magic spell and function to your outdoor outer space .
1. Simple Garden Obelisks
These are hands - down one of my favorite projects . I ’ve had them in my garden for a few year now , and I plan to make even more . Most obelisk plan I discover online required complicated angles and cuts — not exactly beginner - friendly . So we came up with our own purpose using only straight cut of meat and inexpensive wood . Each one be about $ 20 to build , a far cry from the $ 150 Leontyne Price tag I go through on one DIY version ! ( the price will be different now as this was pen over 5 year ago and these are still working in my garden today )
And yes , they ’re hardy . Mine have been through all form of atmospheric condition and are still last strong . Here ’s one from last summertime , covered in Italian climb squash ( Trombolina , also called Zucchetta ) .
We even made a 2d version that ’s somewhat different — and I might like it even more ! I call it theEasy Garden Obelisk 2 . I have it supporting my beautifulTess of the d’UrbervillesEnglish rose .
