Planting Vintage Charm With Old Garden Tools #pottingshed
I've been looking for a way to dress up the Potting Shed to add some curb appeal.
The triangular space was a bit of a challenge, with the space broken up by a gable vent. The gable vent was fashioned from repurposed floor grates. I wanted to add something to hang to complement the vintage feel and charm of the floor grates and the rusted metal roof.

I ran across a stash of old sign letters. The price was right and I found the three letters I was looking for. An idea began to grow.
I’m a sucker for anything “old garden” and I have an assortment of well-worn tools I’ve collected over the years. I laid out my design and my hubby hung everything for me. Three garden hand tools fill in the triangular peak above the gable vent and a pair of old garden shears flank both sides of “pot”.
A pitchfork and a rake fill in the space between the roof and the letters.
