About
Tuteurs are tall, self-supporting trellises shaped like pyramids. In spring and summer, they often hold up vines or help steady tall plants. As many garden plants die back in late fall and winter, they stand on their own as garden ornaments.
You'll cut strips of cedar to length, fasten them together with screws, and shape the finial ornament using a bandsaw. You can leave your tuteur to weather to a natural gray in the garden or take it home to paint or stain.
Details
