Have seen them in people's yards painted and full of flowers. But of course, that is in South Austin Texas !
Put it up for Sale , Recondition it, Take off the Legs and reuse on something else
I've seen some pics of an old clawfoot being turned into an outside sofa! Legs and back stay, they removed one side (basically used a steel tip grinder and removed a large oblong U out of it) sanded it, painted it and used outdoor cushions for it. It would be a fab conversation piece. Good Luck!
As hot as it is where I live, I would put it in the yard and use it as a"cool tub" - fill it up with cold water and sit in it in the shade! Use it as a beverage cooler for parties. Turn it into a garden and add plants.

Take the legs off and save for another project. We repurposed an antique sewing machine cabinet for a bathroom vanity and used bathtub legs to make it taller. Seal the drain and overflow holes, bury the tub in the yard and make a fishpond.
