I would love to share my easy-peasy 1…2…3 directions to building my cedar arbor but it just wasn’t.  I found directions for the project at thevioletfern.blogspot.com and I’m thankful but it took 3 days, 5 children, 3 adults, 1 saw, 1 sawhorse, 1 drill, 1 measuring tape, several pencils, 2 bandages and a bunch of wood screws to get it done.

As you can see the top is still a little bare but a wind storm tore a branch from our front sycamore tree so with a little help from my kiddos and friends (whoops!  add 4 more to the children tally) we will have the branches for the top today.
