How to Build a Window Greenhouse

If you’re looking for a simple and space-saving indoor garden, then you should look no further. Martha Stewart’s website offers a creative DIY on how to build a window greenhouse.

With a few shelves and plants you can add beauty and elegance to a drab window.

And before I get your hopes up too high, you will also need a window that’s deep enough to work with. You’ll likely be able to find the perfect shelving at your local hardware store. Try Home Depot or Lowes. I would recommend Lowes first. Between the two, Lowes tends to be cheaper and less congested.

Anyway, I was going to consider doing this myself (in my bedroom), but unfortunately my windows are very shallow and it won’t work.

Now for the instructions…

I won’t regurgitate the steps. I’ll just give you the link to where you can get the instructions on how to build a window greenhouse yourself. And if you ever do in fact build one, write me and send pics please and I’ll post them to the site.
