We live in a ground level 3 bedroom apartment, and I desperately wanted somewhere to plant some veggies and pretty flowers. When I found the plans for the $10 cedar garden beds we went to town! Cedar fence posts were more expensive than had been used in the plan, and we chose not to finish the tops, so lumber cost us $36 to build two. Still pretty good considering the plastic snap together ones run about $40 a piece and are smaller than the ones we built. We're really proud of them and can't wait to get some stuff planted!

Cedar Beds
Hi! I saw these cedar beds and was excited to make them as well, but I was unable to find any cedar plans or fence posts are our local home depot. Any suggestions on where you found your wood?

Cedar Pickets
Hi JuliaLovesTiffany - did you look for the fence pickets in the garden section? They're not with the rest of the lumber, but usually at the back of the garden area. Here's the one I use.
Hope this helps!
