    All the thumbs down are those husbands who were just shown this video by their hopeful wives. #happywifehappylife

      😂 Yes, I’m watching current videos today showing the greenhouse in its current state and I’m so envious of Jess. 🤫 Don’t tell my husband though. 🤣 (jk I’m very grateful for my husband and the blessings I/we have) ❤️

    To anyone who’s hoping to recreate this project, I urge you to contact local window companies. Today I saved 20 windows from the dump, just because I asked!
    I am so excited to start this project in the spring. Until then, I shall pine over my future greenhouse.

    Quick tip, if you're not too concerned about extra holes, motorcycle dealers have great scrapyards of wood from shipping crates. Bring a cordless drill and all the drill bits you have though because there's no standard screw heads. Or bring a cordless saw. And obviously ask permission before picking.

  • @Riverwell_Farm
    @Riverwell_Farm 5 років тому +7

    Thanks so much! I was so keen to make this and couldn’t find any cheap windows and doors so went and spent waaaaay too much at the building recyclers, then spotted a huge stack of old wooden windows in the tractor shed on our lease farm a few days later. I realised I had miscalculated and needed more so I thought I’d ask the owner if she would mind if I have a couple and she said take the lot and build a greenhouse city if I like 😂
    Talk about timing haha.
    So I’ve had my poor hubby trying to work with a crooked frame from my old washing line/pergola and using old timber from our old hayshed that’s all bowed. He’s done very well considering. I’m so excited. Can’t wait to finish it and move my pepper plants and tomato seedlings in for the winter to hopefully keep feeding us 😁 🤞

    @rochelledellaria6812 3 роки тому

    This is beautiful! Last fall I started collecting windows. I don't yet have all I need, but my motivation for this project has skyrocketed since just now seeing your video. I have a love of dirt, and all things beautiful from my mom. One of the homes I lived in growing up had a fairly large greenhouse on the property. We were blessed. I helped my mom start seeds for flowers and vegetables, and we would plant the vegetables in the adjoining land, and create hanging baskets to sell. I recently drove by the home we lived in and the greenhouse is falling apart. Glass is broken and the foundation is in shambles. It broke my heart. I am reinvigorated because of you to tackle this project.
    Thank you for posting this. Thank you for your vision, your drive, and your ambition

    @illwriteamemo32 2 роки тому

    Thank you so much for talking about how you found the angle to cut the rafters for the correct roof pitch. I've searched the internet, youtube, everywhere trying to figure out HOW you find the angle. I've learned a lot about roof pitch but nobody talked about how to find the angle for actually cutting the board. Perhaps it's so simple and obvious to people that know it, that they don't even think to mention. Or perhaps I'm justing googling the wrong thing. But you've solved what seemed to be a mathematical nightmare for me. And using a speed square is such a simple way to do it compared to the complex algorithms that Google provides.
    Seriously. Thank you.

Your build gave us lots to think about and will help in our design. You are a natural teacher. R&R has given me a ton of inspiration. I am grateful to you, Jess, your family and friends. I just subscribed to your sister Natalie's VLOG as well. Bountiful Blessings.

I think my husband is capable, but not willing. I know that Jess knows how blessed she is when it comes to her family. It’s really something special you did for your wife. You just might have grandkids planting veggies & flowers in that pretty greenhouse one day. Thank you for sharing the process, explaining what, how, why. I wish you all many happy years of growing in that lovely space!
