Vintage Watering Cans in the Garden
It’s personal. I love watering cans and know not why… I don’t remember seeing one at my childhood home and haven’t had anything but a utilitarian, plain watering can, ever! Until,… I began seeing all the wonderful patina-ed and painted watering cans belonging to my friends and fellow gardeners recently. Now I seem to be obsessed and a bit whiny, as I see picture after picture of watering cans posted here on our Facebook page. I even started expressing my jealousy by asking those who had them to send them to me! Shameless!
Annie Downs's watering can with 'Pretty Much Picasso' petunias...
Sherry McGinnis's former oil can
Sue Loring's charming collection
Me & Annie Steen,...Annie took pity on me...
