Before and After

I picked this little planter up for a few dollars, thought it would make a cute addition to the yucky yard!


*Before*  You can barely see it!


*After*  I still need to a little touch up, I ran out of white paint.
 Maybe I should have painted this pink.

 I even did a little replanting, not sure what type of flower these are, I just got them out of the yard.
They were both purple, so I planted them together.

I also purchased some seed packs, think I'll try my hand at germinating and see how that turns out.

  4. I totally am into bicyles and this makes a wonderful planter. I believe those are violets in your pot which wont bloom all summer I dont believe. Some trailing ivy would look nice also as it twined around the bike. Love it. LJ

  7. Hi Kim! The larger plant looks like Tradescantia... or commonly called Spiderwort!
    Your Garden is going to be a lot of fun this year!
