Materials

  • 1 sheet of plastic canvas (7 count, 8”×10”)

  • Size 24 tapestry needle

Instructions

  • Cut your plastic canvas into six panels including two sides, two roof pieces, a front, and a back.
  • Stitch the outlines of each panel using light blue or pastel floss to form the greenhouse frame.
  • Fill in with rows of potted plants, hanging baskets, and vines. Then use French knots for flowers or berries.
  • Join panels together with whip stitches along the edges, forming a box-like greenhouse.
  • Attach the finished structure to a cork or wooden base using glue for stability.
