RabidAlien Posted June 20, 2021 Report Posted June 20, 2021 Been a couple of busy weeks. I didn't build the shed (it was ordered from Lowes and assembled by their contractors), but there was a lot of painting done, and some additions added. The potting rack is from plans I found over at Ana White's site, surprisingly easy to cut and assemble...if you pay attention to which length board she has on each shelf. LOL We ended up going back out after dinner (yay, chicken wings!) and staining it Minwax's "Classic Grey" which gives it a nice weathered silvery look. The picket fencing has been painted white, and will be attached to the wall. Planter is cedar, 1' x 4' and about 15" high, with a 4(ish)" rim. Its bottomless, just some 2x2 posts in the corners extending down a couple of inches and cut at a 45-degree angle to keep the planter from moving anywhere until we can fill it full of dirt. Wife is planning on getting another trellis to put behind it and plant a climbing rose to match the one we've got going on the other side of the patio. tomsteve, Be_O_Be, Tomanydogs and 6 others 9 Quote
wombatie Posted June 20, 2021 Report Posted June 20, 2021 The potting rack is great. My hubby wants to build one but put a stainless steel bowl or old sink in it, so that he can wash the dirt off his hands or vegetables, and then pour the water onto the garden. The planter box looks great too, love the idea of the climbing rose. Marg RabidAlien, meflick and barb.j.enders 3 Quote
