Ten Minute Trellis

This is a tutorial for a small trellis for climbing seedlings. Very inexpensive materials were used. You can use a variety of materials to accomplish this. 

Gather supplies. You can use a variety of materials to lash the trellis together. I tried three different methods: clear tape, ribbon & glue, and electrical tape. The first one I did was clear tape, but the concept is the same, regardless of materials.

*Tape /  ribbon & glue
*scissors
*wooden skewers

 Put the skewers together so they make a small X at the tips. I put the pointy ends down so they go through the soil easier. 

 Here's the idea of lashing them together. Basically an "over, under and around" idea.

 This one was made with only three skewers: two for the sides and one that was cut into thirds for the steps. 

 For the ribbon version, steps 1 & 2 are the same, but instead of having wooden steps, they are ribbon. You start the ribbon wrapping at the bottom of one of the sides, glueing & wrapping as you go. 

 Here are three different versions in action.
