Recyling

Here is what you can do with an old door, old kitchen sink and an old cutting board. I have been wanting a potting table for sooooo long, finally convinced DH it would work.

The bucket underneath holds more potting soil, we added wheels to it.

Love it!

Very nice! I've always wanted a pretty potting area but never found an idea that grabbed me! I have all the parts for one like yours, so I'll have to put that on my to do list!

I made a potting bench from an old upright 3 drawer dresser I found curb side. It already had the shabby chic distressed look. I have this on my front porch.
I went to Wally World and bought a storage container with a lid and my husband cut out the top of the dresser for the tote to fit into. The tote bottom fits into where the first drawer room is. I keep my soil mix in the tote and the other drawers hold my smaller pots and fertilizer and such. Works like a charm!
I have another dresser I plan to make for my back deck also. I plan to paint it with a flower mural of vines and flowers in bright colors. Just haven't gotten around to it yet. This one is more sprawled out and on the lines of a small buffet.
So save those old discarded dressers ladies! haha.,,,,,,Debbie
