Garden junk or not garden junk

12 years ago

Cast from a discarded plastic Halloween cauldron. So is that garden junk?

This might be because it was cast from an old, plastic plant container and extra mud from the first picture.

Your pots are sooo beautiful!
I like to cast concrete too because it is fun, but my creations are play, your stuff is art!

I've been in a state of depression for over a week. Must be the gray weather we're having. Anyway...thank you all for making me giggle!!!! You are the most creative folks and I wish you were all my neighbors :-) I want a water bed now and I want a tub with a flowerpot person. DH is going to flip with another one of my crazy ideas. I just convinced him I needed to build a Mason bee house *lol* Here's my pond. I inherited from the previous owner. I don't like it and would love to replace it with something else. You are all great! thank you for making me laugh. Edna

I see I put the same pic twice on the barnwood/window project...here's the other view. Purplemoon...add any pics you wish to inspir. album...garden walks are open for the public/fundraisers & anyone can take & share pics...I always find some good "card" photos on these walks. I'm wondering if the boot roof was recycled from a worn out birdhouse??? So cute! And the print behind the glass being weather worthy has me a bit stumped...so thanks for the idea, smick. thanks for lookin'! Jeanne S.

A bit heavy looking for art (that could just be me) but certainly not junk. That finish on them is awesome! Is it baked on?
