    I recently decided to try some DIY projects myself and found a fantastic site with videos, and links to tons of downloadable plans. The mini greenhouse we built was fantastic, once we worked out the kinks. We’ve been using the plans we got from there ever since. I listed the site under sources.

    Good luck and happy building!
