Make an Easy Garden Obelisk 2 Flower Patch Farmhouse

This is a variation on my original Easy Garden Obelisk.

And we also made an Arbor for the entrance to my Secret Garden with 2 of these and a DIY ladder across the top. I have white roses planted at the base and I hope soon it will be festooned with delicate white blooms. I want to add a fragrant clematis or other vine as well but not sure what yet.

Since the basics are the same as our original obelisk (link to simple drawing plant below) I am not going to bore you with all the details but I will show you some photos of how he did the X pieces.

Note to make the X you put one half of the X on the outside of the frame…

and the other goes on the inside.

And that is it…

.for a rough sketch of the original obelisk with measurements go here. Put it in your garden and add a beautiful climbing rose and before you know it you will have this.

Just note that you can build these any size you like, I have a few lined up to build for tomato supports, they look so much more attractive in the garden than the wire ones I have been using. If you build any please send me a note or find me on Facebook and share photos.

Here is a Pinnable Photo for you..please share if you wish
