Old weathered chair I planted |

|
I like to use old chairs as container planters. Just find one where the seat can be removed, then staple mesh screening
over the opening (be sure to leave about 4 inches extra in the seat area to hold the soil). This one used to be sponge-painted
a sage green with gold highlights, but over the past few years it has weathered. I like the look and so decided not to re-paint
it this year.

Here is the old milk can as I found it.

And after a fresh coat of green paint
