Aldi- Outdoor enclosure maybe?

welshlass22 · 12-02-2011, 06:33 AM

Just saw this in aldi...

Be good to place on the grass/soil for the torts and put a net over the top..as a tempory enclosure. Easy to put away in the winter

Could even be used for a child's sandpit if you have tarpauling under it

Just thought some may be interested.

it would also make a table simply add a base or you could make it bigger simply by buying more, the heights not bad for youngsters.

Good spot Jo, handy for young one's, as Ann said can be the first cheap table as well.

I got something similar to that from Argos & used it as an outdoor enclosure last summer, it was great, assembled it myself & used a childs fire guard for a cover just attached cable ties to the top of the wood & used the existing clips on the fireguard to secure in place.

Or you can get the same thing if you want plastic and deeper sides from any of the Garden suppliers.Greenfingers is an excellent site.I've had loads of stuff from there at exceptional prices for the quality.They do lots of raised beds,wood and plastic and also lots of mini coldframes and cheap greenhouse heaters.It's a goldmine.When it comes to raised beds you need to pay attention to the height of the sides or they wont last you as the little darlings grow and climb!
