    Y'all lamps with shades facing up. Take bulb out and plant an Ivey. Bury the electrical cord in the ground. Old ice chests and wagons.

    The sky's the limit on your question! I have used on tea pots, old hats, old kitchen strainers! I even used a pair of old boots! One to plant in and the other one, I cut a hole in the side and hung it up for a bird house!

    I have used old strainers, old galvanized buckets and tins. Even an old rusty scraped up bundt pan, really looks cool! The more old and rusty it is...the better, as far as I'm concerned. If you do decide to use any of the ideas that have metal objects with some rust on them, please make sure and use a spray rust neutralizer on metal, so the rust is not continue, especially since you'll be keeping your items outside.
