Cold Frame.... part 2
« on: September 05, 2012, 05:11:30 pm »
Its not the prettiest, granted, but once I've tidied the mortar made the top out of wood and possible thick plastic as I have some and don't particularly want to buy glass, finished the sloping edges to make it smooth, and then paint it all to match the outbuildings I think I will do the job!

I think it's great  :thumbsup: .  Painting the inside white is a good idea too - will reflect plenty of light back on itself.   I love those glass tiles  :garden:
