Potting Bench From Baby Change Table
by
Carole
I bought a baby change table on ebay for $20 and thought it would make a good potting bench. I had some leftover paint from another project - birdseed yellow and ready lawn green - so I painted the table with the yellow, then the green over the top - rubbed it back a little and deliberately did the paint very fast as I wanted a rough look with some yellow showing through. It went from pine orange to this colour. The shelves had signs of water damage, so I stapled some Mexican Oilcloth that I had to the shelves to pretty them up a little and to provide a wet wipe surface so that any spills could be cleaned up easily.
Some screws on the sides make it possible to hang a hand trowel and a hand fork.
In birdseed yellow - you can see the water damage on the shelves

So clever, Carole! I like the green you chose. Very "gardeny."
