Re-purposing old family mailbox

I saw this on Pinterest and Honey helped me! I bet sometimes he thinks Pinterest is awesome and the other times he thinks it might just be the devil! I now use it to store my garden tools and gloves. Certainly has increased his creative work load around the house! The mailbox belonged to my son's great-great grandparents and his namesake AP Young. It is priceless to us!

Carey on Sep 19, 2016Yes over time these tube will rust out. If you want to protect them line them with a piece of pool liner that you can find at Lowes. This is tough enough to protect your tubs over the long term. You can provide drainage by putting some gravel in the bottom of the tub. I once tried styrofoam peanuts to make my planter lighter. To my dismay the floated so well that I had a really hard time keeping them down under the soil. I won't do that again.
