A dump find of old wash tubs and chimney flues and paint made a whimsical kitchen herb garden. In the winter I roll them inside and enjoy fresh/dried herbs all winter.
Enjoyed the project?

How long does the Rustoleum paint last? I have my mom's old wash tubs and bought 5 cans of rustoleum paint. I saw on displayed in someone's yard and it is beautiful. That is where I got the idea and then I saw yours. I love it.
