How to build a beautiful arbor in the garden in the country

Why do you need a gazebo in the country? Someone will say that this is just a beautiful building, from which there is no use. But those who have already built a gazebo on their own site will probably object. After all, it is not only a cozy place where you can hide from the rain or the hot sun. Here you can read a book in the shade, relax alone or even have a picnic with friends and family.

It is not surprising that people built arbors even during ancient civilizations, especially in the southern latitudes. Buildings that protect against sunlight and give the desired coolness, where you can spend a good time in the fresh air, are needed today.

But how laborious is the process of building a gazebo? Do you have to invite specialists and pay a tidy sum for the work? It all depends on the scale of the project. We're suggesting we look. How to build a gazebo in the country with your own hands without much expense.





How to build a gazebo with her own hands Olga has long dreamed of a gazebo, but her husband was indifferent to such an idea. At the request of his wife only shrugged off, they say, time and so there is still with your gazebo to mess with a week and a half. The woman had to either wait or take matters into her own hands.





“Why not build such a tiny pergola?” – asked Olga, once again considering interesting ideas of suburban buildings on the Internet.

An open arbor would not only decorate the site, but could also be used to support plants growing several meters high (the same grapes, for example). Olga loves plants, and therefore this option seemed to her the most acceptable.

First of all, the woman prepared a long-chosen plot for the gazebo, then made markings for a small pergola. The beam for the design took with parameters 70 * 70 * 3000 mm.





Then it is time to drill in the places where the timber will stand. First, Olga removed the turf with a shovel, without removing the markings, and then took up the drill.





When all 4 holes were ready, the woman put in each 50-centimeter tube. Since the drill was wider, the installed tubes had to be securely fixed with gravel, sand and broken brick. At the same time, she did not forget to use the building level so that everything was smooth, without unnecessary slopes.





So that the timber could be reliably fixed in the holes, Olga first collected a blank from the pruning of the same timber, installed it and gave the concrete to freeze.





The woman then twisted the screws and removed the wooden clippings. It turned out reliable glasses for support.





On four boards (150*30*3000 mm) according to the pattern Olga cut the patterns to make the design look cute. These boards will be attached to the edges.





On ten narrower boards (100 * 20 * 3000 mm) similar patterns were made. These elements will be mounted across large boards.

The next day, Olga installed each support bar (only 4). I fixed them with screws to make the design more reliable.





At the top of the sides installed large boards. First, temporarily fixed them with screws, then made through holes with a long drill using a drill. Then I twisted it with long nut bolts.





It turned out 2 peculiar arches, which now needed to connect ten narrower boards, which we talked about earlier. To do this, Olga made a markup with a pencil to saw off unnecessary parts.





The boards installed on top of the woman fixed screws, having previously drilled holes with a drill. The knife cut off the extra elements.





On top Olga has attached nine more bars (30*50*3000), which will create an additional shadow. From the remaining timber made supports, which also fixed screws.





Pergola's ready. It remains only to decorate it, hang flashlights and test. Drinking delicious drinks in such a shade for a woman is now especially pleasant. You can call for tea friends, neighbors or always busy husband.





As you can see, build a beautiful gazebo with your own hands It's possible. Of course, someone may not like such a building, but this is only one idea out of many. Find something that inspires you and start creating beauty.
