Supplies

I prefer to use super glue (Loctite Super Glue Gel Control) when assembling walls, but this is totally your choice.

If you go with wood glue (We recommend Gorilla Glue) be sure to use the painters tape to hold the parts in place for a few hours until everything dries.

We recommend painting or staining beforehand. The stain we used in the Minwax Wood Finish Penetrating Stain, Early American. For paint we recommend either Waverly chalk paint, or Heirloom White General Purpose Spray Paint.

Assembly

With just 6 pieces, 7 if you have a floor this DIY kit is a breeze.

STEP #1: The Main Walls

The first step is to atach your longer main walls.

Lay your side wall flat, and add super glue or wood glue along the edge.

Then place the larger wall on top of the smaller wall not along side.

Hold until dry or attach painters tape and move on to the other wall.

Rotate and do the same thing on the other wall.

Next Step: Side Wall

You will only have one side wall to attach.

Run the glue along side each side of the longer wall that is already attached.

Simply place the side wall on top and hold in place.

Place each side of the roof leaving small gap at the top.

Finished Version

If you have a floor you can choose to assemble the walls on the flooring at the start or place entire greenhouse on floor at the end.

I chose to leave the floor unattached so I can remove structure to move items around my greenhouse.

That is totally up to you.

    I love the kit I got. I can’t wait to make the greenhouse and fill it up.

  2. Pamela Schwarz says:

    Why aren’t the instructions printed in with the greenhouse? I ‘bout went crazy until I found that I had to print them out and save them-arghhh! ( Okay-now that I vented I feel better-but really-why not just print out the directions and include them?
    Hope you take this in the right way and that you had a great vacation… and, by the way …the greenhouse is wonderful and I will use it for a “studio!)

      I am so sorry for your troubles Pam. We thought this would be an easier way for people to see step-by-step vs. printing a ton of paper. We will work on a PDF to include with the kit. Thank you for your feedback

I love a good DIY project, and helping people create warm and cozy spaces in their homes. So if your someone who is ok with me being a hot mess express, a legging wearing, top bun sporting, kind of girl, then let's be best friends! You can never have enough friends right? I am a natural born nurturer, who always leads with my heart. I have learned it is ok to say no sometimes! My advice to you, take chances, in the end, you will regret the chances you did not take.
