Garden Arbor DIY

Ever seen an overpriced Garden Arbor in the local DIY store and thought you could build a better one?

So what's stopping you? Tools? Bolts? Nails? Lumber?
How to fix it in place?

Don't be put off. Once you know which size bolts to use and the length of wood you'll need, it's a straight-forward task.

Just imagine showing off your new Arbor to your friends and family! And when it's mature and your new creation is swathed in beautiful flowers, won't you feel proud?

Garden Arbor uses

Garden Arbors are perfect for providing a transitional structure between different themed areas in your garden, as a focal point or an elegant framework for climbing plants such as roses, clematis and wisteria. Wooden arbors look good in shady areas or woodland, iron garden arbors are outstanding features in lawns!

Vines grown over Garden Arbors look sensational; the grapes are also easy to reach!

A seat in an arbor makes a perfect place to relax and watch the garden grow, or read a book in the shade, or just doze in the sun...

    "High Five" that first arbor photo is very beautiful. I like the way the ivy or crawling plant has gotten is running through the lattice work. I'd like to put an arbor in the back yard. Then I'd have to find pretty greenery and flowers to decorate it. Ahh, the work required for something beautiful... :)

    I love the arbors, but also your selection of garden furniture - I will definitely be looking at these.

    I like these as an entrance to a walkway leading to the front door of a house.
