Greenhouses hold heat and allow gardeners to start seeds early and keep crops going late. You need not spend thousands building a greenhouse; these real examples start with the very simple and get more complex.
Something as easy as leaning two windows together will help protect plants. Consider connecting them with a couple of hinges to prevent falling in the wind.

Love the creativity with the pop bottles. Not only does the plastic let in the light, but if there is water in the bottles it will help maintain a consistent temperature inside the little greenhouse walls.

An A-frame greenhouse made from pallets and plastic sheeting. Brilliant!

Here somebody built their own portable greenhouse instead of buying one.

Great uses for old windows, above. Old windows are the perfect lids for cold frames and raised garden beds.
Of course, if you don't want to bend over or work on your knees, you may prefer a cold fram on legs.

This must be the nicest looking way of using old
windows to make a greenhouse. This looks like a
little Victorian house.

Had to include this beautiful lean-to greenhouse made with, you guessed it, recycled windows!
