Decorative GARDEN Trellis TOWER from, Sticks and Bark

[@JeriLandersofHopalongHollow]

So glad to see that you've been inspired by my twig cloche video to build the tepee, yours looks great! I used my tepees for peas, but yours look sturdy enough for tomatoes. Love the way you used bark as the weaving and finial, marvelous. Thank you for the plug, much appreciated>

[@suburbanhomestead]

Happy to see you here Jeri. And thanks for sharing part of your magical world and work.

[@cindybehn9801]

Smart and cool to make. Oh I’m so thankful of what God had done for us!

[@sholiday8739]

Watching this video reminded me of reading Walden.

[@dottiebaker6623]

Ah, I've been eyeing small branches lately - now I know why. Thanks!

[@lemonielala3080]

These will be perfect as a project for me and my 6yo daughter who wants to grow both green peas and sweet peas in her garden this summer! They'll go perfect with her vegetable chaos planting (let's call it whimsical 😛)! Thank you for the inspiration! ❤

[@suburbanhomestead]

That will work perfectly

[@rosagapi]

awwww! does she has her own garden???? cutest thing ever

[@lemonielala3080]

@@rosagapi yup, it's only about two feet wide and 12feet long but she packs eeeverything in there! She was so stinking proud when we picked leeks and brussel sprouts yesterday in the middle of winter and she gets to brag about it at the dinner table! 😂❤ she has popcorn, potatoes, peas, broad beans, tomatoes, parsley, squash, and a bunch of flowers planned for this year. It'll be interesting to see how it turns out! Her 9yo sister has a much bigger flower border/herb garden with a tiiiiny seating area for one chair in it. It's a bit different, but hey, when you're broke you figure out cheap hobbies for the kids! 😂👍

[@rosagapi]

@@lemonielala3080 one of the best things I've read today. You know, my father has a garden full of vegetables here in Italy, which is good if you're broke... or in lockdown due to some new virus... Your children will have farmer skills... they are very lucky

[@lemonielala3080]

@@rosagapi I looooove Italy! 😍 I feel for you being on lockdown, we're just getting started here in Finland. Kids had orders to take home all school books in prepration of the school possibly closing, so it's a good thing they can keep busy in the yard if it comes to that! 😉 let's hope it blows over soon so we can get back to normal life. Until then, we'll just binge suburban homestead and craft away in the garden. ❤🌱👌

[@esthersnell2357]

I love jeri landers. I enjoy and look for videos of you both! ❤️💕

[@darollins42]

Love when ya riff on the environmental and economic issues we face as industrial peoples in the 21st century. Thank you!

[@FourHornsFarm]

This video is science, technology, engineering, art (I loved your song, too), math, and history in perfect balance. I watched it twice.

[@donnamcdonald6310]

The ball on top is a nice touch.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks. I think it helps make it more elegant

[@KarenBowers4]

That is gorgeous you've inspired me to try to make a couple for my garden.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Awesome to hear that

[@anonymoussource3664]

Prolific your words regarding Human labor and the capital of it as its loss is becoming normalized. Brilliant video and Hop along Hollow artist Jeri is so well noted. You Sir are endlessly talented! Grateful for you sharing yours.

[@riverunner9978]

It’s perfect! I gather downed branches from the surrounding forest and use them in my landscaping and gardens. I like your method of utilizing natural items in your creating! Your wise beyond your years and that is a special quality to observe!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you! I appreciate it.

[@IglooGirl1]

you're on fire Siloe :D love the video as always & your deep thoughts & sincerity that you share in them as well. thank you.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks. I glad to know you resonate with the ideas I shared

[@nikkimason5893]

definitely going to try this - I cant be bothered making a template so I'm going to try just sticking them in a bucket of dirt to hold them upright :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

That’s a good idea

[@proudcc]

The trellis is soooo beautiful !!!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks

[@gardenboots7464]

Making and using the template is brilliant! Much appreciated video. Thank you :) Keep being you and doing your beautiful work. It is good to discuss important matters and to respect each other. Your videos bring a definite gentleness and reverence for all life.

[@rainrabbit9209]

I love it! Dude...get some whitewash on that porch railing. It's gorgous, but weather is taking its toll. I'm so excited to have found your channel. I love the architecture, the hardware, flatware, fine china and gratitude you have for simple wonders of life.

[@trishabrinkdesign]

I absolutely love Jeri Lander’s KZbin channel! I also enjoy your content as well and I’m not surprised that you enjoy following her too! After watching her video, I made a few of these last year from our apple tree pruning‘s… They worked magnificently at protecting plants from our dogs and chickens. I think you will have a lot of fun with yours as well. Keep up the good work and thanks so much for sharing!

[@suburbanhomestead]

She has a great garden.

[@BelisariaHald]

Your videos really speak to my heart. I share your concerns about the value of labor and the future of it in this era of technological advancements. But most of all I really love the projects you make and how much you seem to enjoy making things for the sake of it. So thank you for sharing all of this.

[@suburbanhomestead]

I'm glad you found the conversation relevant. Thanks for watching.

[@nlbhaduri]

Your philosophy of life is very centering and encouraging....sometimes I am ready to give up on humanity,but you remind me of why we really matter. Thanks

[@pamelaadams3649]

That turned out beautiful. It looks so much better than anything you would buy at a big box store, and use resources you already had in your yard. Well done.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks! Free is always better

[@glenmckenzie3243]

I love using sticks in my garden, they are sculptural and very beautiful. Climbing beans do very well on teepees. I find stick and branch teepees a bit better than bamboo as the rougher surface is easier for plants to cling to and climb. Sweetpeas grow well with stick supports.

[@malibu405]

Lovely. Artful production. Beautiful piece.😊

[@sparrowgarden1401]

Thanks for showing a few tricks for making one of these. I have saved a bundle of trimmings for just such a project.

[@suburbanhomestead]

I'm glad to have helped. It is always best to use them while still freshly cut for pliability.

[@OksBryk]

Last year I made similar tower from pruned rose branches. This spring I got fresh new sprouted rose tower :)))

[@shannonwells3736]

Your videos are so peaceful to me. The way you are portrayed in your videos embodies so many things I wish people to see in me. The desire to do things the ‘old’ way is so strong for me. Thank you, for being an inspiration!

[@jackyshultz995]

Awesome creation! I love it when human using nature abundance to create something useful like this.

[@mariannecannavo8331]

Watching you craft this trellis was an inspiration. I'd much rather use the labor of my pruning creating garden ornaments; it's much better than taking it to the green waste. I also love your added insights on our connections to the earth and humanity. Thank you for helping us to keep in-tune and aware. Your videos are so fun to watch and filled with ideas to try in our gardens.

[@ButterflyLullabyLtd]

Absolutely beautiful. Thank you for sharing. 😊🐝🦋😊

[@gratefulvivi3894]

I love Jeri Lander's channel! I am thrilled that you have shared this lovely piece of rustic art with us. You and Jeri are both passionate about nature and creativity. Thank you for sharing your gift with us. I love talent!

[@suburbanhomestead]

She is a great artist

[@v3nnicat]

Germany is still too wet and cold for gardening. Not that I have a garden to potter in, mind you. I'm gardening vicariously through you Mr Oliveira, and I'm having so much fun. :)

[@suburbanhomestead]

I hope spring arrives there soon.

[@judyjohnson2892]

Wow, that is really so beautiful!

[@TheEarManLives]

Great job, very innovative. I love your background music too, I noticed you were the artist.

[@gregorydaines]

Today - In England, its the first day of spring where it feels a bit of warmth in the sun. So I’m looking forward to getting in the garden and doing this kind of stuff soon

[@suburbanhomestead]

Hope you all have a great gardening season!

[@gregorydaines]

I think I’ll make something similar with some of the wood here which is from cobnut, they grow long straight rods. I made something last year from an apple tree we had to take down, but the wood soon became too brittle and the last storm we had took it out.

[@CoffeeCakeCrumble]

I made a hasty stick pyramid for peas last season with some old pieces of chicken wire to grow on. It was so sad looking🤣🤣 Yours is a work of art.

[@michaelwhinnery164]

Far and away one of the best content creators on you tube... Thank you young man.

[@suburbanhomestead]

I appreciate that Michael!

[@pateicialane4740]

That is fab and worth all the work unique ♥️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 England

[@Chris-liwymi]

Just finished my raised garden bed. Because of what you said about the woman who was an artist using plants, I organized my plants in a way where my broccoli and cauliflower and such will be staggered to create an aesthetically pleasing garden. Thank you for mentioning her in 1 of your videos ;)

[@suburbanhomestead]

I'm glad to hear it was of help

[@cheechee7890]

This came out beautifully

[@rucarox926]

Beautiful. Some inspiration for next years pruning.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks

[@misamisa2677]

loved your tower i love yo use natural things🙏❤️☮️

[@brendahart9930]

You inspired me to make a garden tower for my cherry tomatoes. I purchase string to start the project, but then followed with willow branches using string only when necessary. It turned out well and looks much more attractive than metal cages. Oh the branches for the structure was from pruning my mock orange.

[@rwatts2155]

Hi Siloe. Haven't seen one of your videos in quite a while. I really liked your obelisk! I also notice that you said you like Jeri Landers. She is another of my favorites! You are both unique and very real artists. One of the things I admire about both, your and Jeri's gardens is that they are "perfectly imperfect." Honest and real. Unpretentious. Thank you for showing this video on how to make your garden obelisk. You have inspired me to make a few for my own garden! Oh, and I particularly liked the finishing touch that you added to the top. The orb is perfection! : )

[@crystalgypsy3180]

Excellent video!! Teaching in many ways. Most excellent sir.

[@gabriellechilton5902]

I just found your channel. Wonderful. Thank you, ill keep watching, 😊

[@justlookin2]

I live your closhe! I too, have been inspired by Jerri Landers at Hop along Holler! I have tried to follow her guidance in how I decorate my little home. She's so creative! I'll be watching your videos! Looking forward to seeing what youre doing!

[@suburbanhomestead]

She is great

[@askmamalouise7605]

Absolutely divine!

[@DanielleDeFreeze]

I love your stick trellis! Also after watching this I went to check out Jeri Landers and to my surprise her Hopalong Hollow is about 30 minutes from my house! Blessings to you and your family.

[@odulcina]

Fantastic! I will try to make one too this summer!

[@wandawilliams3110]

The words you speak is 100% true.. So, I thank you for speaking them. Much Respect!

[@suburbanhomestead]

I appreciate that

[@pricklypear7934]

Great job on both the lecture and the garden tower. Truly inspiring! That ball finial was the pinnacle in many senses!

[@anapaulacrawford5837]

That's what I love, make your own. I made for my cucumbers plus peas. I love this video!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks!

[@jen.BarnesFamilyHomestead]

perfection! I'm always looking for ways to use all the scraps and twigs and all the bits from the yard cleanup... and although our past hugelkultur beds have been WONDERFUL... I really don't want to dig another one just for somewhere to put our tree trimmings! (whew, that was a muscle building project and possibly the hardest I've ever worked in the garden!) This is lovely!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thank you. It is always good to have a few alternative ways of using a resource. Have fun with the trimmings.

[@rosewhite6806]

Very artistic ! I am creating a garden space on my property and am looking for uses for all the cut brush that is rapidly accumulating. I love this idea. Thank you so much for sharing your technique.

[@jenedge5949]

Nicely done. Good reminder to use what you have, but also really great end product. Sturdy and beautiful. 🌱

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks

[@TheRustySpigot]

Omg. That is gorgeous!

[@ronnihatcher295]

Ahhh you really should get more views. I have always thought so but for now quite a many of us still here!

[@suburbanhomestead]

It has been a lower this year percentage wise, which can be discouraging. :-(

[@PleasantPrickles]

That came out superior to anything store bought! Well done, indeed!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks!

[@celestegoulding1191]

At the start, instead of drilling holes in a circle of wood, you can stand the sticks upright in a large pot that is at least 30cm high. That’s what I do. Having someone else to hold the top steady helps.

[@jethrojackson9211]

That is a mystic, marvellous - magnificent tower...

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks

[@lorettaviecelli359]

so beautiful...love your work & video...really appreciated hearing your values. Bless our earth..bless you...thank you!

[@hellosunshine9915]

Just beautiful !!!

[@vmcshannon]

Wow that is sooo creative! I love the natural look and feel. I have lots of branches in my yard also I may have to try this. Thanks for the video.

[@suburbanhomestead]

Thanks. Hope you have fun making one

[@threegoodeyes7400]

Fantastic project! Turned out really nicely. I’ll be keeping my eye out for some spare branches!

[@suburbanhomestead]

Awesome.

[@alioreo2451]

Gorgeous work. Thank you for sharing.

[@earthdragon7823]

This was a very beautiful and peaceful video. Thankyou for recommending the other channel too, I’m always on the hunt for content such as yours and theirs! Handcrafting is a form of healing 🧡

[@Chris-liwymi]

Also I wish we could have our own community (like the Amish) where we could use the land around us to help each other build and learn about everything together

[@suburbanhomestead]

That would be kind of cool

[@Lou_Jones]

I absolutely love this. Thank you for sharing all your efforts.

[@wildchook745]

I love it. I don't have many branches at the moment as my fruit trees are still young to prune. But, I got some old bamboo stakes that I can use to create one for my sweetpeas.

[@suburbanhomestead]

That would be great

[@theseahagg]

Thank-you Siloe, for this how-to video, enjoyable as usual. A project to make while sitting in the shade of my desert garden in NM this summer. Thank-you so much, as well, for your recommendation of the Jeri Landers channel, practical hands on and enchantingly heart felt in her presentations. A new subscription for Jeri from me due to your generous sharing of information. Wishing you all best.

[@alexiscolby9415]

Really lovely work, I tried making one last spring, was weird looking - my sister said it had Tim burton-ish vibes. I prefer your structure, I think I made the mistake of pre-soaking all my materials - made things over pliable and structurally more challenging to stabilize - I will use your method for my next attempt, Many thanks for another wonderful video!

That came out great! I wish I could do something with blackberry vines but they are so full of thorns that it's nearly impossible to work with them.

[@suburbanhomestead]

That is true. They may not be as strong either.
