The lumber was reclaimed from an old fence that had been torn down and thrown out in a nearby neighborhood. And with a little bit of wood glue, screws, and paint, the lumber was turned into a lovely new planter box for my bare window. The whole project cost no more than $8 bucks (outdoor paint) and it was worth every penny.
The only one who wasn't happy with this project was our baby Blue. He was very quick to let me know that he was not happy with this 'project' mommy and daddy were concentrating on. Notice the pure hopelessness in his eyes to ever be able to play frisbee again...
What have you recycled and turned into loveliness lately? I would love to hear!
Your house looks ADORABLE! And awesome backyard!
