100,000 of you. I’m honestly still trying to wrap

100,000 of you. I’m honestly still trying to wrap my head around that.

What started as me just sharing what I was making for my family, little moments, and pieces of my life has turned into this incredible community, and that’s because of YOU.

The comments, the messages, the times you’ve made my recipes in your own kitchens… it all means more than I can put into words.

Thank you for being here, for supporting me, and for growing alongside me. I don’t take a single one of you for granted.

We’re just getting started 🤍

Comment GARDEN and I’ll send you all the details to your inbox.

The best thing about these garden beds is that they can be made to any dimension that you want! I created four 4x8 beds, two 3x8 beds, and two 2x3 beds using the exact same method each time!

Materials (for ONE 4x8 bed)
* (4) 2x8 boards, cut to 8 ft long
* (4) 2x8 boards, cut to 4 ft long
* (24) 3” exterior wood screws
* (4) 2x4 boards, cut to 14” long

Instructions
1. Cut Your Boards (if needed)
Cut your boards to length before assembling. We had (4) 12’ boards, we cut into an 8’ board and 4’ board. However, you can also buy (6) 8’ boards and then cut 2 of them in half.

2. Drill Pilot Holes (optional)
On each 8’ board measure ¾” in from each end and Drill 2 pilot holes per end, spaced about 2–3” from the top and bottom
This helps prevent the wood from splitting when you add screws.

3. Build the First Layer (Bottom Frame)
Lay out:
* (2) 8 ft boards (long sides)
* (2) 4 ft boards (short sides)
Form a rectangle with the short boards sitting inside the long boards. Then attach the boards using 3” screws into the pilot holes you created in the previous step.

4. Stack the Second Layer
Repeat process by placing the second set of boards directly on top of the first frame, lining up edges carefully

5. Add Corner Supports
Place the 2x4 board inside each corner
These should sit flush with the bottom and sit an inch below the top.
Screw through the outside boards into the 2x4 board once in the top 2x8 board and once in the bottom 2x8 board.

Pro Tips
Use untreated cedar for best longevity, however I used fir for a more cost effective version. These may only last me 5 years, BUT the cost of cedar deterred me from going that route.

Avoid pressure-treated wood unless it’s labeled safe for gardens

Use a garden safe stain on the interior before filling to help with board longevity.
