Not quite sure what you mean, were you thinking mini greenhouse or a cold frame? Someone on here very kindly posted a plan of a cold frame that I saved, hope this helps ;)

Have used a pair of old smallish windows on our plot. Just stacked a doudle layer of bricks up at the top and a single layer at the bottom and layed the windows over them-blocked off the sides with old pieces of wood and currently usind for salad veg and to bring on leeks from seed till ready to plant out.
