Container Gardening

Up-Cycling and Re-Purposing



We love to re-use things and here in the greenhouse we have re-used old windows and floorboards; old freezer shelves and kitchen worktops to extend our sowing and growing area. If you ask local builders and craftsmen they will often be happy to just give you stuff that they will have to pay to get rid of!! We are thrilled to have an extended greenhouse and to know that we have prevented good stuff going to waste.

  3. We’ll done Terry , I can’t believe the amount of rubbish people leave behind , some washed up of coarse I’m all for recycling and thankyou for helping clean up our planet β€β€β€πŸ™πŸ«Ά

  4. Hello from Canada! Thank-you for your videos. I am in your age group and I love finding other women our age who are creative and knowledgeable and truly enjoy their craft. I just love your two little comedians that really keep us entertained. I am always amazed at how shiny and healthy they are. Could you do a video on how you care for them? Or if you have already done that, could you direct me to it. Thank-you again for your inspiring videos. I love each one of them and appreciate your efforts.

  5. I just collected a dismantled polycarbonate greenhouse that was being thrown out! Will make a cold frame or something out of it. Good to see this mindset! X

  6. Hi Terry! What a gorgeous lark with you and the dogs on the beach! I am always so heartened to hear you speak about your love, respect and care for the health and beauty of the ocean and earth and all who live here. The green house will be such a pleasure to work in. Thank you for the tour and I always look forward to the next one. Be well!!

  7. πŸ’™ beautiful spacious place. SO much delight will come from that space. 😁
    Lovely scenery! Thank you for the clean up. ❀️

  8. Very exciting to have a larger greenhouse! I’m looking forward to moving to the beach when we retire in 13 years and passing the family home down to my daughters

  9. Hi Terri greenhouse looks brilliant Thanks for the post always look forward to your talks enjoy the week ahead Love to you xxx

  10. I’ve been wondering about the greenhouse renovation after the poly tunnel blew down. I’m glad to see it is going πŸ‘πŸ˜Ίyou must be so relieved to know it came to this point. Wonderful to repurpose the floor boards. I like the grid idea for excess compost to flow thru save is a good thing.everything looks great. If you can find 2 bicycle wheels thrown out perhaps someone can make you a rolling cart to go to beach with or haul things in.

  11. What a great green house!! Beautiful Light for the seedlings! The ocean and beach walks are such a blessing! Peace and calm to all.

  12. Reuse and re love, you are both magnificent! The 'Orangery' looks amazing😁 and I love the detailing on the old floorboards Well done. Stay blessedπŸ€πŸ’šπŸ€πŸ’•

  13. Oh to live and be able to visit the beautiful natural places.❀ Greenhouse is lovely.

  14. It's nice living next to the water, we are very blessed to own two places near the ocean, very neat greenhouse, I love it when plans happen and you can't believe it and keep telling yourself it's finally mine. πŸ˜ŠπŸ’–

  15. It's brilliant to see how you've remade the greenhouse/potting shed. The new re-purposed doors and windows make a huge difference and those shelves are fabulous. Can't wait to see it finished. πŸ™‚

  16. Greenhouse looks brilliant! You will have so much fun. At least some of the stuff you found is useful.

  17. Great job, what a wonderful way up-cycle Your videos make me think more about what we have around us and what can be used instead of racing off to the store. Save $ too!

  18. Lovely video – and compliments again to the gorgeous camera work! The opening shots of each film are always so special and heart-breakingly beautiful πŸ’

  19. Thank you for the lovely visit to the seaside. I grew up near the ocean but live 3 hours inland now and miss it. Enjoyed seeing you pick up trash – my Dad and I did that on our beach walks too. And yes sometimes there are treasure!
    Your bigger greenhouse is wonderful. My husband built me a greenhouse several years ago and it changed my life. I was just out there watering swisschard and herbs that grow almost year round in there. I also love to sit in it on sunny winters days out of the wind and cold.
    Have a good week, Blessings!

  20. How excited you both must be as your new extended and remodeled greenhouse is prepared for Spring! I have to hand it to Lol how his fingers can play so much BEAUTIFUL music, they also are very, very skilled at building. You two make such a perfect compliment to each other and joining your energies together really brings such EXCELLENT results (in all ways).

  21. I love upcycling, I hardly ever go to buy anything new. My favourite shop is the recycle shop at the rubbish transfer station. You find all sorts in there as cheap as. Love your new greenhouse. =-)

  22. What is your introductory music on your videos? It's wonderful just like your input. Greenhouse is coming along nicely. So inspirational

  23. Great music, great views. You're so clever and resourceful. Wishing you a wonderful winter.

  24. Absolutely gorgeous and heart warming in every way.. as usual. Your videos are full of beauty, inspiration, practicality and joy. Every aspect makes my heart sing. Such a pleasure. Thank you all so much Terri, Lol & gorgeous Brock & Jazz. Namaste πŸ™πŸΌ

  25. For some reason, while I was watching the ocean and the seagulls, I got a craving for warm sourdough bread with some butter and a nice tall pint of Guinness! After a chilly day at the beach, I'd want to sit by the fireplace at a pub and chat with friends. πŸΊπŸ»πŸžβ€πŸ§‘πŸ’›πŸ’šπŸ’™πŸ’œ

  26. Thanks Terri and Lol for creating my favourite videos on YouTube! So interesting and down to earth. ❀

  27. Love your handmade life! I grew up in a family that reused, re-made and re-purposed almost everything. I've carried on with it, to this day! Thanks for sharing.

  28. The new extended greenhouse looks fantastic! BTW, the Meyer lemon I planted in the ground in my greenhouse in a similar climate to yours is thriving with abundant lemons even on the small trained tree in case you are keenπŸ‘
