In this video we are building a DIY backyard corner pergola! See more in the description for the full list of materials we used.

We had trouble finding a triangle shaped pergola that was big enough (and still within our budget) for the space we wanted, so we decided to build one ourselves from scratch. All of the materials we used were picked up from our local hardware store, and all of the wood was cut and stained from stock. We did not follow any specific plans, and cut everything to fit as we went.
