Hey Everyone!
It's been awhile, but I am back! Back with smaller projects, because I still have no access to my power tools. After the move, we've had so much going on and still have not finished unpacking. So everything from the last trip is still in the garage. We need a shed BAD. Once we get everything squared away, I will be able to do better builds for you. What I have planned for the next few months are a Farmhouse Dining table, upholstered bench, coffee table and more. So wish me luck and please enjoy this garden build.
The house has an amazing yard and I want to keep it that way. So, while looking around on Pinterest, I came across this Obelisk. All the ones I saw were like 8 ft tall, all the way down to 4 ft. The one I built for you today is 6 ft tall. I also added a solar light to the top, which is optional. If you would like to try this your self (no power tools needed) the cut list and materials are below. Have fun with this project and make it your own!
MATERIALS:
4- 2 X 2 X 8 ft Pressure Treated Wood
3- 1 X 2 X 8 ft Pressure Treated wood
Exterior Wood Glue
Galvanized 1 in wood screws or you can use Galvanized 1 in crown staples like I used. (wood screws would be more secure, I couldn't find mine)
4 - 2.5 in exterior wood screws
Pull Saw
Clamps
Level/Square
Tape Measure and Pencil
(always use best safety practices when building)
