Blue “greenhouse” made from old windows

By KeimLoesch, member
I built my own trusses.

Using recycled windows from my one neighbor who was replacing all the windows on her house and a couple of old doors from another neighbor who was getting new ones installed, I worked out this design.  The greenhouse came out so nice that we use it mostly for hanging out.
