  • Isn't this edge pretty? Trust me, this is very easy to do. All you need are three tools you likely already have on hand. 6
  • This was the before. Does this look more like what you have in your own yard? Let's fix this right up!
  • This is a simple half moon edger. Make a nice fresh cut along the grass part of your edges in a nice smooth arc.
  • Once the cut is made, trench out the soil with a hand held garden shovel and mound it away from the edge. Trim the grass along the edge horizontally and vertically to get that nice crisp haircut look.
  • The trench allows for water run off and soil falling, and the shadow just creates a really dazzling finish. 3
  • I created a fun little chart that displays the process a little better. Come check out all 4 steps as well as many other after shots at:

  • The base layer of Annie Sloan Chalk Paint is Louis Blue. 3
  • A whitewash coat of Pure White went on next, wiping off the excess. 1
  • A French graphic was transferred using Mod Podge.
  • Hydrangeas and cone flowers from the garden kept this project affordable.

  • I ran out of space in this tree circle – so MWHP (My Wonderful Hubby Phil) had the idea to move the washtub up – way up on the tree itself! 2
  • Feed grain scoops (again with MWHP's idea of placing them on the tree) with our favorite wind chimes we made from flattened spoons and vintage kitchen tools. (they sound so very pretty!) 2
  • Radio flyer wagon, washtub and an old heater repurposed as a plant stand.

Repurposed Junk Garden

"A garden is like a child: a little wild, hard to contain but makes me smile." - seen on a garden sign ...»

As greatly inspired by many – I've turned my love of junk to the outside of my house with a quite-a-bit of junk-influenced gardening.

Hope you enjoy!

Gardening: Turn old dresser into an outdoor planter!

http://eclecticallyvintage.com/2012/05/dress...

Use outdoor paint, line drawers with garbage bags and use bricks in back of drawers so they don't tip.

Another great way to recycle pallets by turning them into a planter.

I have two of these on my deck that help to splash the area with color for the season. Remember to drill holes into the planter boxes for drainage.
