  • Hey!
    I'm so excited to bring you guys this easy, on a budget DIY pergola for less than $240! I did the project in less than 4 days. This is a perfect quick & easy summer project. It gives you so much shade from the sun with the canopy & sheer net curtains...I love that you can open & close it and it's so big & roomy! You can also make it small if you like a cozier feel.
    Also, by adding solar lights and string lights, it gives you that ambiance feel perfect for those summer nights. This is perfect for a patio or grass area no matter is you have a big backyard, small backyard, big patio or small patio!
    I used concrete cinder blocks and wood post for this pergola because it's really durable and it can be renter friendly which means it's removable. If you want it to be permanent, you only have to do one extra step!
    Finally, I just love the touch by adding some plants! I used dirt, lemon grass, spikes, dragon flowers, and other plants that I don't know the name of lol. Most of the plants are annuals!!!

    Love this! I live on acreage in Hawaii and really needed this easy project! For stain to protect from carpenter bees, if you live in tropics, use old motor oil first, or alone. Bees wont drill and termites dont like it either. Im getting this stuff next week!

  • @suzycowan5072
    @suzycowan5072 Před 2 lety +2

    First, Yes, most definitely, Lemon Grass repels mosquitos and some other biting bugs. I love what you've done here, It never would have occurred to me to glue two single blocks together. Unfortunately, I would have walked away disappointed and tried another day or somewhere else to get the double blocks which would have put off the project even further. I love that you used the other three holes to plant into and I love the curtains you put up around your pergola. I am going to look for your video on the material you used and also how you were able to put a canopy on your pergola. You did an absolute splendid job and it looks beautiful all the way to the light caps you purchased for your 4x4 posts. It is videos' like yours that give so many of us inspiration and I am very grateful that you took the time to make a video to share with all of us. May you have an enjoyable bite-free summer with many happy evenings on your beautiful patio. Many Blessings to you always. P.S. I am subscribing to watch more of your videos - Tip: You can also use peppermint plants to keep mosquitos away and also a mixture of Orange oil & Clove oil to keep ants and other crawlies off your patio, hope this helps some.

    • @CozyCozy
      @CozyCozy  Před 2 lety +1

      Wow Suzy!!! Your comment really made my day! I was really discouraged with the blocks at 1st because I originally bought the wrong blocks and I wasted money having to rent a truck twice by having to return them to get new ones. When I got there & noticed they didn’t have double blocks, I was thinking I have to make it work somehow. I remember it being like 90 degrees that day but I made it work lol. I’ll definitely try the peppermint plants & let you know how it worked! Thanks for watching and I’m happy I could help!

  • @MissCourt88
    @MissCourt88 Před rokem

    “Save big money at Menards!” I haven’t heard that jingle in about a decade so when you mentioned Menards I got so excited. Where I live now everything is super expensive and I thought “there’s no way I can do this for that cheap” well I put everything needed in a cart at home depots online and it was under $240!! I cannot wait to start this project. I adopted a kitty off the streets where I live but my landlord will not allow her inside so I want to build a small space where we can hang out. (Until I find cat friendly housing.) This is exactly what we needed. Thank you so much to you and your mom for this video. 💕 all the other DIY’s like this are super pricy and seem way more complicated than this. You’re making a new cat mom very excited. Thank you so much (,:
