cindy:)

you will love it to bits!!!!!!!! I sure enjoy my sanctuary! Elaine

Cindy,
Congratulations! I know you have to be SO EXCITED!!!!
How big is it going to be?
I started with a hoophouse that we built ourselves last year 12'x12' and quickly outgrew it even before the end of winter, hehe.
Now I have that one plus one that is 10'x40' and STILL need more room. I have barely enough room to put the plants that I have already, but want some room to start seeds.
I am going to wait to tell that to DH until the spring. I am afraid he will divorce me before the new year if I tell him now and I am going to need to take the marriage deduction next month, LOL.

Cindy,
That's great!
You are going to have so much fun with it.
I love mine...what a super place to "putter".
OD :-)

Mine is 10 x 20 but too small already
You're gunna love it!

its going to be 12x8x24.....i think that will be ok for now...lol....i do plan on sharing some of my plants and concentrating on my 'collections'....which will be lots..lol...i have been thinking about what type of benches i will get my son to build for me and so on and so on...so yall be prepared for the questions...lol....:)

Benches; The easiest and strongest & longest lasting! Go to a commerical building supply place,( they sell to mostly large contractors), ask for galvinized steel hat channel & metal studs. These can be cut with a tin snip & then screwed together with a cordless screwgun. We figure out what is going on the bench and then space accordinly. If you have mainly round pots, get some stocco screen and fasten over the hat channel.Hope you can see enough in this picture.
