I always wanted a potting bench and when I saw this one last Fall at a garage sale, I just couldn't pass it up. The $5.00 on the price tag just couldn't be beat!
It had a few flaws mind you and it definitely needed a makeover. If you look at the back leg you realize they had a nice dog. Who just happened to love wood....
Then there was the problem with the missing bowl for the stuff you need to put in the compost bin. Which I found out yesterday after planting all my pots that yes this is a good thing to have.
So youngest daughter bought me the paint for Mother's Day. Yep, I ask for crazy stuff. We had fun picking out the color. It was Mother/Daughter bonding at it's best!
After two coats of green you can barely see the dog's teeth marks! FYI: I love to paint in the grass eventually you can just mow it away.
I couldn't find a bowl today so I settled on a aluminum pan at the dollar store instead. I measured and it was perfect!
All done ready for the next pots to plant. This is so much better than the patio table!
