Thanks 👍 my wife wants me to make her one so I decided to look for wishing Wells and I found yours😎
Well Brian you better jump on it. Happy wife happy life. Wise advice from my husband named Brian too. 🤣🤣If you have any questions I’ll be glad to help.
Great looking well. Gonna use this design for my wife
Thanks, Tim. Using the fence boards worked out great for us.
Thank you for a simple video and plans on the wishing well concept! Everything I’ve looked at previously seemed overly complicated for a simple idea. I like the look of this and the fact it can be done in a weekend. Thanks again!
You are very welcome. I’m so glad you found this video.. We sold that house to a family member, and they are still enjoying the wishing well. We plan on making another one very soon. I appreciate you watching..
I love the nostalgia of wishing wells! They are always a treasure to find! Yours turned out very beautiful in your yard, and I loved the flower pot!
Thank you Nikita. There is something magical and nostalgic about a wishing well. It makes me smile every time I walk outside. I appreciate you stopping by. 😁❤️
Mimi's Mixed Bag You're welcome!! 💕

Hi! Aww! I absolutely love it! Your design is so cute and easy. I’m just in love with it. Loving the
bucket you have hanging. Super cute share my dear friend. Have a beautiful Sunday.🥰❤️❤️🌸🌼
Thank you Michelle. I’m very happy with how the Wishing well turned out. It would be great if all my visiting friends would throw change in there. 🤣🤣. Have a blessed week friend. 😁❤️

Super cool gonna build one for my wife just like it thanks looks amazing
She will love it !! Thank you so much for watching.
That is just beautiful!! What a great piece to have for years to come. Tyfs 💟
Thank you Michele. I’m so glad to have a husband who goes along with all my ideas. This was a great cheaper alternative. Thanks so much for stopping by. 😁❤️
Beautiful, will try to make one myself. Ty so much.
It’s a great way to fill up a big flower bed. Cheaper than a concrete birdbath or statue.
Nice little project! Crazy what people are charging for these; better to make one yourself. Thanks for the inspiration!
You’re exactly right, and I appreciate you watching. 😊
Love this & your flower bed looks beautiful 😍
Thank you Tina. We love our backyard during May and June. This is when the flowers and everything look their best. After July 4th, we struggle with heat and keeping everything alive. I appreciate you watching. 😁❤️
Good job your husband’s awesome!
I want to make this over spring break! Thank you for sharing! Blessings from Kansas 😊💕
Thank you Robin. We recently moved from that house after 20+ years. I plan on making another one too. It’s so cute when the bucket is overflowing with flowers.
Very Nice. Did you happen to have measurements and such? I like this one. Thanks

Thank you for posting this. I am going make one to cover my septic tank.
That’s a great idea!! You’ll have the cutest septic tank in the neighborhood. 😄
That’s beautiful!!! Made my heart happy 🤗🤗🤗
Thanks so much Karen. I think my cheaper Wishing-well idea made my husband happier too. 🤣. I love those concrete fountains and i’ll get one again in the future. Thanks so much for watching.
Love this! I just locally looked at one and the man wants 300.00 for junk! I want to make my own and yours is perfect. I also enjoyed listening to you. Thank you. I'll show this to my husband.
Yes Cherie, the price of wood is expensive now but you could still make it for way less than $300. I still love mine. TFW 😊

Looks terrific Mimi! I am building my Mom one to cover up some sewer pipes coming out of the ground in the front yard.
That’s a great idea SR. A Wishing-well is a lot prettier than sewer pipes. 😁
It turned out so.pretty. Awesome job. Enjoy it. Your flower bed is looking so nice. Tfs Hugs
Thank you Donna. A few days of work really pays off for a beautiful yard during May and June. Come July heat.... it’s hard to keep things alive. Have a blessed week. 😁❤️
Love this think I will build one similar to this one, can you run down a list and measurements, thank you.
Thank you for watching Biron.
We tried to keep the measurements as simple as possible and Eyeballed everything.
The bottom box was eight fence boards cut in half. 4 on each side. The side posts are approximately 4 foot tall.
The roof trusses were cut on 45° angle. The roof is 3 fence boards each side 27 inches wide. I hope that helps.
@@MimisMixedBag it did thank you, I appreciate it
That turned out so cute!
Thank you Laura. This was just a great cheaper alternative to fill the flower bed space. I love those concrete fountains and I’ll have another one someday. Have a great week. 😁🤣
Looks great. Those hosts have really taken off in three weeks!
Thank you Lorna those hostas will be beautiful until around the Fourth of July here. After that, the heat really gets to them. Thank you for stopping by. 😁❤️
Very nice! You inspiring me!
Thank you ReJane. I hope so and my mission will be accomplished. 😄👍
Just awesome guys. Well done xx
Thank you so much Tea. I think we surprised ourselves how well it turned out just looking at a picture.
I appreciate you watching. ❤️

Tks for sharing .Ms Cindy
Thank you for watching Mary. 🥰
very nice well done well explained
Thank you Andrew I appreciate it. This is our second summer and we still enjoy it and our flower bed.
Hi mimis can you please tell me how you put the three pieces together on top that was used to support the roof ?
Yes Aaron that’s exactly what my husband did 😊👍
Did you just nail the 3 pieces that were cut at 45 degree angle to support the roof to the long 2x4s on the sides ?
Yes Aaron. That is exactly what my husband did 😊👍
Nice wishing well wife just added it to the honey do list. Could you post all measurements. I seen the post were it's 4 foot tall.
Hi Dick,
I keep a running honey do list for my husband too. Lol.
The overall height of the Wishingwell is 5 foot instead of 4. My post mistake.
The height of the bottom boards are 23 inches tall plus the split fence boards trimmed on top. .
The two side posts are approximately. 60 inches
The roof trusses are cut on a 45 angle
The horizontal roof boards are 27 inches wide.
I hope those measurements help.
I appreciate you watching.
@@MimisMixedBag Thank you very much Mimi sounds like the measurements of a old girlfriend. My Honey Do list gets LONGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGGG but a man has to do what a many has to do LOL
Dick Long You’re so funny
Happy wife Happy Life
Awesome job,whats the width?
The bottom box is approximately 24 inches across 4 vertical fence board widths.
The roof is a horizontal 27 inches . Hope that helps CJ thanks for watching
Adorable..
Thank you Brenda. We love how the Wishing well turned out. This was a great cheaper alternative.
It is really cool
Thank you Esther. I’m lucky to have a husband who goes along with all my ideas. This was a great cheaper alternative. Have a great week. ❤️
You had me at long haired weiner dog!!!
We have two. Spoiled rotten.
TFW 😄
@@MimisMixedBag AS THEY SHOULD BE!!!!
How long ago did you make that 1 board cost $35 dollars
That project was done April 2020 at the beginning of the pandemic. I don’t know about your area, but in West Tennessee our lumber prices are slowly going down so hopefully yours will too.
Love your accent
Thank you Enteghade Avval
HOW TALL IS IT FROM FLOOR TO TOP OF BASE?
It was approximately 5 foot tall. 😄👍
Did u used all 6 2x4?
Yes we used the 2x4s to frame up the bottom box, the two 4 ft sides, and roof trusses .
The box and roof was finished with treated fence boards.
We still love love our wishing well. Thanks for watching. 😊
Would you please give me the metrics of the box's side too side and ruff too please
I thought I responded to you this morning but I realized I didn’t I’m sorry. The bottom box is 24 inches on each side.
The roof is a few inches wider at 27 inches.
Thank you for watching
@@MimisMixedBag thank you very much and i really love the way yours turn out.
Wonderful. Perfect size for my garden as well. I would put a bike tire inner tube around that chain holding the bucket so the chain won't damage the wood.
Thank you Deana The inner tube idea would work perfect. I appreciate you watching. 😁❤️👍🏻
Size of box please. Thanks
Hi Kenny, it’s approximately 24 x 24 box I made with 4 fence boards on each side.
I appreciate you watching
@Mimi's Mixed Bag thanks...All done I did a 26inch box the same way you did but I used 5/4 decking I had leftover from a table project. Simple and painless Thanks again Regards,Ken
@@kennykraus6340 awesome!! 😄👍
@@MimisMixedBag
Hi! How tall is it?
Approximately 4 foot
@@MimisMixedBag Thank you! You and your husband did an amazing job!
I like to give you styes of the wishing well
Thank you I appreciate you watching.
I would not leave it sitting on the ground , the wood will rot . but bricks or something on it .
Thank you Nature Owl, that is a very good tip. When we took the big concrete fountain down, the well is actually sitting on a square of concrete. The wood sure won’t last if it is in the mulch and dirt. 😁👍🏻
