I wanted an herb garden but really didn't have alot of room. So Mike screwed some or our coffee cans, we LOVE coffee, to our fence and drilled holed in the bottom for drainage. We started to get plants but since we started this project late in the year the snow hit before the plants could be used :-( In the spring we have a planter that will sit below this area so the run off from the verical garden will water a flower garden below it. We are also going to add many more of these in the spring to the fence.
This blog is full of creative and unique recycling ideas. I love to recycle things into new things :-) Milk jugs to dust pans, pallets to walls, bed sheets to kilts etc. Since recently disabled recycling has become an even bigger part of my life. Doors to tables and islands, soda bottle to self watering gardens the possibilities are endless and I have the time. Enjoy and PLEASE post remarks or questions, I love getting the input. We like to breath new life into our favorite old things!!!
