Break time from the garden paths...
Today,
I took my two old rusty fish tank stands
along with
some chicken wire and wire cutters
and lined and weaved
the chicken wire to make a wire basket.
I encourage you to use gloves
as this was a painful process without them..hahaha
Then I used some burlap bags I had laying around
and a coconut fiber liner and placed
them inside to hold
the soil and plants.
A quick visit to Rockledge Gardens
for some cinnamon basil, lavender
and violets.
I placed the stand by the
back door so
that we can enjoy the bees
and butterflies from the
back porch.
I am off to finish the second stand...
I am linking up to Linda's Nifty Thrifty Tuesday...
check it out.
Have a great Sunday...
