My son built my veggie patch from recycled products. He repurposed some old star pickets and chicken wire. Same with the soil, it’s cast offs from the flower farm next door, we’ve added heaps of fertiliser to build it up. The gate is our old fire guard. I’m very impressed and it grows great veggies

I am so happy in the garden… yours sounds beautiful.

I love hearing of people who recycle their stuff in such a clever way!!

wow that sounds great. at least you were being thrifty and recycling at the same time. good job!

YestErday i ran out of pOts so i used one of my Firewood logs. I put dianthus. In there. Slowly getting there

Great joy can be achieved without he need to spend an abundance of cash……if you like recycling, a great place to look is your local tip. Most of them now have a recycling centre where items can be bought for very little cost…well worth a look!

Tonight I sat in my little area with my ipad until it got dark. I planted some cuttings in tree logs as pots. Placed a step ladder up so i can use it for shelfing.

would love to get into using recycled materials – wish I had a green thumb!

Well done Re-using items is always awesome too!

My hubby loves repurposing items as well. I have so many unusual pots!

Our first brass bedhead came out of an old chook pen & is still used in our guest bedroom! I agree it would look lovely as a fence in the right backyard!

Sounds like you have done a super job is always good when you can make something old new

Also; I love the idea of re-using; and an cast iron bed head would look wonderful and rustic.

Congratulations! You sound very proud of your efforts! Also; sounds like you have created your own little oasis/hideaway.

Sound very nice – congratulations on a clever job.
