My Garden Bench From 2 Drywall Buckets, 2 Broken Drawers, Insulation

I decided I wanted a garden bench for under my front yard tree area. I'm all about using what I've got laying around and my creativity. Here is where I went with it. Light weight but sturdy enough to sit on and all weatherproof.
Two empty drywall buckets
Bench top was previously made from two broken drawer fronts. I used 7 cans of insulation spray foam to cover the buckets and sides of seat area.
A little craft paint and done. Already had half dozen requests for me to make more.
Enjoyed the project?

Frequently asked questions
Have a question about this project?
This is so cute! I'm seriously thinking of doing something similar. My only question would be: With people actually sitting on it would the foam eventually loosen and fall from the edge?
Can you show us, or tell us how you made the rocks ? Very Interested. :)
What is a "stripping" motion?
