Woman does her own carpentry DIY garden flower stand, netizens exclaim she's so capable

Even though it's a rented house, it's still a home. The hanging pots on the wall, the low fence, and the flower stand,

In the evening, sitting at the small wooden table, looking at the fragrance and simplicity filling the yard, how delightful that is.

Passion can make a woman who knows nothing about woodworking do something like this.

These past few days have been extremely hot, yet I went all out on woodworking, truly sweating buckets, fighting on for 4 days straight.

What I bought were individual wood studs from the market, sawed by hand with a saw, very tiring. Since it's a rented house, I didn't fuss over materials; as long as it's practical, it doesn't matter if it doesn't look pretty. Making all this used 240 yuan of wood, 15 yuan of iron nails, and 20 yuan for shipping.

On the last day my husband couldn't stand it anymore and helped saw a big batch of wood; his sweat soaked a large patch of the ground beneath his feet. Thinking about it now, I finally understand why some migrant workers drape a towel over their shoulders.

Actually, a house doesn't have to be owned by you; as long as you're happy, there's nothing you can't do. I've never learned woodworking, which is truly a pity.

Doing such heavy work in this scorching heat is not easy, and what you made is still high quality.

Although my father-in-law is a carpenter and there's no shortage of wood at home, I reckon he couldn't make something like this. Because the tables and stools he makes are all for selling, as a livelihood, and he himself doesn't love this trade.

As for me personally, although I often think about making my own flower stand or fence and the like, I'm just too lazy to get started.

2 of the flower stands have added rain canopies; the ones that can't get rained on I put under the eaves, where they can get sun for most of the day. Right now it's the fence that suffers more from sun and rain. Since I'm someone who lives for the moment, I figure if it lasts 4 years that's breaking even. If you want something sturdier, I have tung oil for sale here, not expensive, and you can brush it on to get a rainproof and sunproof effect.

What a capable person, doing it yourself, so much fun! The most important thing is that you dare to tinker like this in a rented house, I really admire you. I'm also temporarily renting, and I wouldn't dare make such a big commotion. Making so much in 4 days, and it's already so beautiful, you have a talent for this.

This afternoon I brushed all the stands with 2 jin of tung oil, which cost 24 yuan. The color looks a bit darker now, and this way I don't have to worry about rot protection anymore. My motto is: life is about tinkering, and there's great joy in tinkering!!

Netizen: Well done! Let those stinky men see, they shouldn't act like lords all day, and when they do a bit of work you have to coax them with kind words and make them tasty food to please them. Without their help we can still do it ourselves. Sisters, get to work!
