Humble Garden

 

We have yard sale furniture.

We use recycled materials.

I did purchase some flowers to plant in my garden; and seeds were planted.

This giant pot of zinnia's came from four packets of seeds.

The large wood flower box came from my husbands work.

It was a large crate that carried equipment.  They are asked to dismantle and throw away.

My husband took the wood from the top and made the border that goes all around.

He used 2 X 4's so that my flower pots could be dropped down inside.

If you notice the black spools?  They are a hard rubber and also come from his work place.

Instead of putting all this in the landfill we are using it for our patio and garden.

We have so much trouble with rabbits and squirrels

 that lifting flower pots up high discourage them from trying to eat all I plant.

Most important it is easier to garden standing up!  ;0)

I would like to make a special note too that my daughter-in-law

made the two cushions on my swing.

She bought the foam and we bought the cloth and then she

created this wonderful set of cushions.  Our swing is many years old.

It has a fresh new look and gives us many hours of enjoyment.
