Most Wanted Green Houses



 


I'm retiring in 2 years I will have 37 years as a public servant, and I'm hoping to have a greenhouse waiting for me as a retirement gift.   I have these greenhouses dancing in my head.  The picture at the top is my favorite, and the gift I'm hoping for just a little bigger.  I like the third one simply because the windows open.  There's a few other projects that must be completed before the greenhouse.  I'm adding a sunroom off my kitchen this spring.  It will be used for my craft room and the children's playroom.  I want to replace the kitchen lighting, repaint, and add a fireplace.  I need a new storm door, the guest room needs a make-over and so does my office.  The list goes on and on, so the greenhouse is at the bottom of the list. 

I've picked out the perfect spot for the greenhouse.  It will receive plenty of light and it's close to the garden area.  Not sure if it will have water, but electricity is a must for the grow lights,  heaters and fans.   I was thinking that I could install a few rainbarrels for the water supply.  A girl can dream can't she!  Which is your favorite?

  1. I like #1 because it is so cute--doll house-like, but I suppose 3 is more functional. Which is your choice?

  2. Did you make sure that your office co-workers and bosses read this blog :-) so that they know about your present :-)? I also want to have all those. Right now the dream is to own a big tract of land with farm and forest (at least 20/30 acres).

    1. No, I haven't introduced my co-workers or boss to my blog. I want to keep somethings to myself, lol. I hope you are able to obtain your farm & forest. That's alot of land. Thanks for stopping by.

  3. "Oh my goodness! I share your dreams... Make room for me LOL!
    It's hard to chose because they are all so adorable! I think I like the third one because the windows open. I always wanted a Sunroom, and a greenhouse to boot.. I think that's every garden diva's dream. Love the post and I share your goals and dreams too! One day I hope I'll be posting about mine.

    1. Where you been? Hope all is well. I've missed you visiting. I'm hoping for the first greenhouse with the windows that open. Its at the bottom of my list, I have to choose between the sunroom and greenhouse now. I'm choosing the sunroom. It's something that the entire family can use. The greenhouse will be all mine, so I have to wait. Glad you stopped by.

  4. LOL! Good choice!

    I don't get to blog as often as I'd like because my new Job takes up most of my time... However I try to do one here and there and catch up with other blogging bloggers when time permits.
