Underground Greenhouse Tutorial For Year-Round Gardening

September 1, 2014 by Larissa Coleman

underground

Do you like gardening, but tend to go into a winter depression because you can’t enjoy those fresh fruits and veggies during those few cold months of the year?  An underground greenhouse, or walipini, may be the option for you.  This post will show you a video tutorial on just how to build one of your own.  That way you can be growing your harvest year round, and enjoying fresh veggies while everyone else is using up their canned food storage (or buying foreign).

While the instructions leave you with a fairly large greenhouse, you could easily downsize and make it work for the space you have.  What do you think?  Is this something you would want to have?

Garage Door Halloween Decorations

This Garage Door Halloween Decoration project is such a fun way to make a big Halloween statement without needing to decorate the whole yard. Instead of a small wreath or porch sign, this idea turns the entire garage door into a spooky silhouette scene, complete with witches, pumpkins, trees, cats, and creepy Halloween shapes.

I really like this one because it has huge visual impact from the street. The black silhouettes against the pale garage door make the design easy to see, even from a distance, and it gives the whole house that haunted Halloween feel without being too gory or scary. It is perfect for families who want something dramatic but still fun for trick-or-treaters.

This is also a great project if you enjoy cutting your own shapes from cardboard, poster board, foam board, or lightweight plastic sheets. You could keep the design simple with just bats and pumpkins, or go all out with witches, trees, ghosts, black cats, and cauldrons. Add a few outdoor spotlights or battery lights nearby and it would look amazing at night.

What makes this project especially clever is that the garage door becomes the backdrop, so you do not need a lot of expensive supplies to fill a large space. It is bold, budget-friendly, and very customizable.
