DIY Potting Bench From Reclaimed Fencing and Free Finds
While visiting my daughter for the weekend, we put this customized potting bench together using some old fencing and some free finds she had in her garage. The only thing she purchased was the hardware.
She was very specific in what she wanted- scoop soil from the left to a slatted piece on the right that allows the soil to fall through to a container.
We used a former privacy fence gate, 2x4's and 4x4's, slatted display shelves and 2 sections of shorter, more narrow fence sections.
The upper shelf on the left is for potting soil. The shallow shelf on the right is to hold a container to catch spilled potting soil.
She wanted doors to hide it all away. The two "lids" on the top are removable.
