I made it from corrugated plastic board (available at sign shops and craft stores) and realized that it could easily blow away, especially since I live in South Jersey where the weather ranges from blizzards to hurricanes. To give it mass to hold it down I glued one-inch square pieces of treated lumber to the interior corners utilizing LocTite's Stik n Seal (available at Wal-Mart in the hardware department) to do the job. Then I put it over a piece of broken brick to stop in from moving sideways. Another way to deal with this building would have been to stick heavy wire (such as from an old coat hanger, but galvanized would be better) into the ground and run it up through the corrugations. This leaves the interior free. Still another method to add mass is caulking the inside corners of a structure with silicone, and don't skimp on it. Experiment with different methods and see what works for you.
