I love using unusual containers and fun items in my garden.  The first is an old wash tub.  Next a broken chimenea.  An old birdbath with a crack is perfect for bog plants!  Next is an antique strawberry wire plant stand my mom had.  The yellow chair was in my parent's sunroom while I was growing up...it had been white!  Finally, these are my old crocs!  Hope you enjoy my garden!

LOVELY IDEA... THIS IS REALLY CUTE. I HAVE THROWN OUT SO MANY OVER THE YEARS.  I'M USING ONE FOR A FIRE PIT, IN MY SECRET GARDEN... HAPPY GARDENING !

LOVE!!!!  And I really enjoy the whimsy!  :)
I use the coldframe lined with plastic with holes in it to plant my lettuce and herbs, after my tender plants are  out in the garden and don't need it anymore.  Also I fill a concrete bin that was used for feed for the cows, when this was a dairy farm to grow my dahlias, Missouri primrose and sunflowers.
We got a new bathtub, guess what I did with the old one?

Thanks for the inspiration... I have a pair of shoes like that. Well my grandnephew did, its a planter now... Happy Gardening !

Beautiful container ideas... Thank you for sharing... Are you sunflowers from seeds ?... Happy Gardening !
