Treasure trove!!!

Treasure trove!!!
Reading the TT thread, I got some ideas.
We have moles and bunnies and squirrels and a kitty and three dogs so a TT seemed to solve some potential problems.
Do we get saw horses or build legs? Oh, I know what we can do, says my Dear One-- (notice she's now in on the garden thing-YEA!). Remember the table from the lawn set that the wind picked up and shattered the glass? It's 3 1/2' x 3 1/2'---perfect!
So now she's cutting the plywood scraps that we had in the shed to fit, screwing in the driveway (shh-hh don't tell anyone.)
Meanwhile, I'm digging around in the back shed. Yippee!! Three wooden dining chairs that are unsafe for human rearends but will support a 2' x 4' box in the front yard. Chairs painted bright, funky colors----oh, the ideas are going crazy in my head!!!! Maybe even sitting on some artifical grass ('cuz I don't wanna weed).
And I even found an old mailbox to use to put whatever in, as suggested on this thread.
Now if the vermiculite would just arrive!!!!
Havin' FUN!

Re: Treasure trove!!!
So glad to hear you are getting ready for planting in Virginia.
Keep going, it sounds great. Please share pictures when you can, I want to see those funky chairs and the Table Top.

not so funky chairs
The only colors that HD had in their mis-mixed paints were a cream, a med dark blue and "butter cookie". It's gonna work----I mean, for $3 for all of the paint...... Have one chair nearly painted and waiting for the spindled legs to dry before attempting another coat. I hope the vision in my head is what actually happens!!!!

Oh yeah, and I'm attempting to dry the two bags of compost that got drowned in the rain. I have it spread out on a tarp--one bag looks like a giant cow pattie (which it was at one time!!).
